It takes anultra fast update rate to capture infrequent events anddisplay the most accurate signal detail. That’s whereAgilent 7000B Series scopes really stand out. Thanksto a proprietary chipset, you get faster update ratesnot only in analog mode, but in every mode. That’swhy you see greater signal detail. That’s Agilent.© 2010 Agilent Technologies, Inc.Agilent and ourDistributor NetworkRight Instrument.Right Expertise.Delivered Right Now.866-436-0887www.metrictest.com/agilentAre you using the best scope?Take the 5-minute Scope Challenge.Visit www.metrictest.com/agilent/scope.jsp
