The Agilent/Keysight E1416A is a C-size, 1-slot VXI power meter module engineered for accurate average power measurements in automated test environments. This message-based instrument integrates with Agilent 8480 series thermocouple and diode power sensors, as well as the 11722A sensor, delivering programmable measurement capability with selectable resolution and configurable averaging. Functionally equivalent to the 437B and 70100A meters, the E1416A provides the precision and speed required for production test, R&D, and service applications across RF and microwave frequencies.
