Agilent/Keysight E9323A

The Keysight E9323A is a peak and average power sensor engineered for precise RF and microwave power measurements from 50 MHz to 6 GHz. This compact sensor delivers time-gated peak, average, and peak-to-average ratio measurements across a dynamic range of −60 dBm to +20 dBm, making it well-suited for W-CDMA wireless formats including cdma2000. A 5 MHz video bandwidth enables fast, corrected measurements at up to 1000 readings per second via GPIB.

– Compatibility & Integration

The E9323A integrates with EPM-P series power meters (E4416A/E4417A) only. Connection requires E9288A sensor cables, which are color-coded and distinct from 11730 series cables. GPIB connectivity allows direct instrument control and data logging in automated test environments.
