Highlights

  • EEPROM to store cal factors eliminates manual entry
  • Wide frequency range from 50 MHz to 50 GHz
  • Wide dynamic range from -35 to +20 dBm
  • Power linearity of less than 1%, excellent SWR of mismatch uncertainty, and highly accurate power repeatability
  • Accurate calibration and traceability to US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
  • SCPI codes compatible with 8480 series (option CFT)

Note: Option CFT is available to replace legacy 8480 Series power sensors intended for cal factor manual entry and SCPI compatibility. Option CFT is not compatible with 43x and other obsolete power meters.

  • SCPI codes compatible with E-Series sensor (standard option)
  • Compatible with EPM (N1913/14B, N1913/14A & E4418/19B), EPM-P (E4416/17A), P-Series (N1911/12A) power meters

Note: All N8480 series power sensors are incompatible with the Keysight 43x, E1416A, N8262A power meters, 5314x microwave counters, and E7495x base station test set.
