Agilent U2000 Series USB Power Sensors

Agilent U2000 Series USB power sensors measure true average power from RF and microwave devices and make setup fast and simple by providing plug-and-play USB connectivity, and by eliminating the need for a separate power meter. The U2000 Series is an affordable solution that doesn’t compromise on performance in multi-channel power measurements. With the U2000 Series, you get what you need - simple set up, beyond just a sensor.

The Agilent U2000 Series currently includes four models that deliver up to 250 readings/s, 9 kHz to 24 GHz frequency range and -60 dBm to +20 dBm power range. Each sensor includes a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 interface for simple, quick setup. With internal zeroing capability, calibration can be done without disconnecting the sensor from the device under test, hence reducing test time and sensor wear-and-tear.

The sensor displays power measurement results on a PC or selected Agilent instrument with the N1918A Power Analysis Manager software. On top of the normal waveform monitoring option, the software also eases monitoring and troubleshooting with functions such as limit and alert settings, record and playback, multiple-list view, overlay, and channel mathematics.
