Anritsu MA24507A – Power Master™ Frequency Selectable mmWave Power Analyzer

The Anritsu MA24507A Power Master™ is a frequency-selectable millimeter-wave power analyzer engineered for precision power measurements across advanced RF applications. Operating from 9 kHz to 70 GHz, this USB 3.0-powered instrument measures signals from –90 dBm to +15 dBm with typical amplitude accuracy of ±1.0 dB. Its compact form factor (155 mm × 84 mm × 27 mm, 0.28 kg) houses a receiver-based architecture delivering fast measurement speeds and user-defined frequency band selectivity.

The MA24507A excels in multi-channel monitoring, supporting simultaneous measurement of up to 6 frequency channels. Three primary measurement modes address different workflows: Continuous Mode for standard power measurements within specified frequency ranges, Power Hunter Mode for autonomous detection of up to 6 signal sources when frequencies are unknown, and Channel Monitor Mode for concurrent measurement at pre-defined channels. This operational flexibility, combined with adjustable measurement speed controls and integrated offset correction, makes the analyzer adaptable to diverse testing environments.
