The Keysight 10436A is a general-purpose digital power meter for manual and automatic RF and microwave power measurements from 100 kHz to 110 GHz. It displays absolute power in watts or dBm, or relative power in dB, eliminating manual conversion steps. The instrument integrates an internal 50 MHz reference oscillator with Type-N output and accepts the complete Keysight 8480 series of power sensors. Power measurement capability spans -70 to +44 dBm with ±0.5% accuracy.
