Agilent / Keysight E9322A E-Series Peak and Average Power Sensor, 50 MHz to 6 GHz

The Keysight E9322A E-Series Peak and Average Power Sensor delivers precision RF and microwave power measurements across 50 MHz to 6 GHz. This sensor simultaneously captures peak and average power data, enabling detailed characterization of modulated signals through time-gated measurement modes and peak-to-average ratio analysis. With an 83 dB dynamic range, ±0.21 dB accuracy, and VSWR below 1.5:1, the E9322A provides reliable performance across wireless communications, radar, electronic warfare, and general RF/microwave test environments.
