Keysight / Agilent R8486D Overview
The Agilent R8486D diode power sensor is designed for use with the EPM, EPM-P series, 70100A, E1416A and the discontinued 43x power meters, and provides extraordinary accuracy and stability. The R8486D power sensor measures the average power over its entire -70 to -20 dBm dynamic range which gives you accurate readings even if your test signal is subjected to multitone environments, modulated carriers, or carriers with high harmonics. You also get extremely low SWR at mm-wave frequencies, and it is traceable to the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The Agilent 11708A 30 dB attenuator is supplied with 8480 series power sensors with the "D" suffix, for calibration with the power meter 0 dBm, 50 MHz reference.
Features:
- Excellent SWR for reducing mismatch uncertainty
- 50 MHz calibration port
- Accurate calibration and traceability to US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) millimeter-wave sensor calibration
- Compatible with EPM, EPM-P and P-series power meters, plus the E1416A VXI and discontinued 70100A and 43X power meter
- Accurate average power measurements over -70 to -20 dBm
- Frequency range 26.5 GHz to 40 GHz
- Diode power sensing element
