The Agilent/Keysight 04287-60111 is a test head assembly for the Keysight 4287A RF LCR Meter. It serves as the measurement interface for precision impedance characterization across 1 MHz to 3 GHz, enabling fast, accurate component testing in production environments. The test head connects to the 4287A’s 3.5 mm measurement terminal and supports the meter’s full range of impedance parameters and calibration functions.
