Options HP 8517B Test Set Option Description
Option 001 Adds IF switching capability for up to four test set connections to the HP 8510C Network
Analyzer.
The test set used is selected from the network analyzer. Refer to “Controlling Multiple Test
Sets” in Chapter 3, “Operation” of this manual for more information.
Option 002 Deletes the programmable attenuators and bias tees.
Note:
If bias is required but attenuation is not, the bias can be applied externally by using an
HP 11612B bias tee.
Option 004 Moves Port 2 attenuator in front of the b2 sampler, allowing devices with output power up to 30
dBm (1 W) to be measured. Adds a 3 dB attenuator which protects the switch splitter from high
power into Port 2.
Option 007 Adds five amplifiers, two 10 dB attenuators, two 6 dB attenuators, and two tapered attenuators.
These components increase the available power and dynamic range of the test set.
Option 908 Supplies the hardware required for rack mounting the test set when its handles are removed.
Refer to Chapter 2, “Installation” for more information.
Option 910 Adds a duplicate copy of this manual to the shipment.

to Chapter 2, “Installation” for more information.
Option 002 “plus” 007 Removes the bias tee, and retains the high dynamic range capability in the test set.
Option 004 “plus” 007 Adds high-dynamic range and high power measurement capability to Port 2.
