X-Series signal analyzers
100% code compatible
Whether you are working in the aerospace and defense or
communications industries, technologies evolve but one
thing stays the same: the need to ensure readiness of your
test system.
Carefully planned instrument migration and modernization
can maximize your test-system efficiency, performance,
and readiness, while minimizing risk and potential disrup-
tions, keeping you at the leading edge in the competitive
marketplace. The Agilent X-Series signal analyzers were
designed as evolutionary replacements to their in-class
predecessors. Take advantage of the X-Series' perfor-
mance, flexibility, speed, modern connectivity, and true
form-fit-functional backward compatibility in replacing the
legendary HP/Agilent spectrum analyzers to achieve seam-
less migration and avoid the need to rewrite test software.
