Anritsu ML2488A Overview

The ML2488A Wideband Peak Power Meter provides accurate peak power measurement for communications, wireless, and aerospace applications. For the design and implementation of wireless networks, they address the important issues of power control, peak power, and timing. The performance of the signal channel and the range of product features make accurate and precise testing of the power envelope of communication and radar systems easy and straightforward. The ML2487A supports one sensor, and the ML2488A supports two sensors.

With their high sampling rate of 64 Ms/s, these meters offer accurate peak power detection for wide bandwidth systems such as those compatible with 802.11a/b/g, eliminating the need for manual correction factors found on the current generation of power meters. The ML2488A dual channel sensor input and display allow simultaneous monitoring of WLAN and Bluetooth® wireless technology enabled devices, providing crucial testing for the co-existence of the multi-standards.

The following Power Sensors can be used with the ML2488A Power Meter:

MA247xD Standard Diode Power Sensors
