The Agilent/Keysight 85025A is a coaxial detector for scalar network analyzer signal measurement across RF and microwave frequencies. It detects both modulated (AC) and unmodulated (DC) signals, delivering the dynamic range and precision required for accurate RF component characterization. Built with 50 Ohm input impedance and rated for +20 dBm maximum input power, the detector integrates directly with Keysight 8757 series analyzers via Type-N male connector (Option 001 available with precision 7 mm connector).
