The HP/Agilent 8719ES is a vector network analyzer for S-parameter characterization of RF and microwave components from 50 MHz to 13.5 GHz. It delivers magnitude, phase, and group delay measurements with 100 dB dynamic range. The instrument integrates a synthesized source with 1 Hz resolution, a tuned dual-channel receiver, and advanced calibration methods including full two-port error correction, adapter-removal, and optional TRL calibration.
