The Agilent/Keysight 86100A Infiniium DCA is a high-performance wide-bandwidth sampling oscilloscope mainframe. It integrates three instruments into one platform: a general-purpose repetitive sampling oscilloscope, a digital communications analyzer, and a time domain reflectometer (TDR). Featuring a Windows-based operating system, an 8.4-inch color touchscreen display, and a modular architecture with two plug-in slots, it provides highly accurate and comprehensive measurements for high-speed digital communications, optical components, and TDR analysis.
