Hello and thank you Willy,

A very small point of clarification:

AESA now integrates its equipment with various products manufactured by Agilent Technologies thus you will find the coaxial cable testing equipment on the Agilent Technologies web site.

The unit is described as an Automatic Coaxial Cable Measuring System 9700 - Alliance Solution and it can be found at the following web page.
