The Keysight N1917B is a 3.0-meter power meter cable adapter that connects 8480 and E-Series power sensors to P-Series power meters (N1911A, N1912A). Rated for 30 Vrms, this adapter enables backward compatibility between legacy sensor platforms and current-generation meter hardware.
– Technical Specifications
• Cable Length: 3.0 meters (10 feet)
• Voltage Rating: 30 Vrms
• Compatible Power Meters: N1911A, N1912A (P-Series)
• Compatible Sensors: 8480 Series, E-Series (excluding E932x)
– Key Features
• Direct interface between two generations of Keysight sensor technology and modern P-Series meters
• Fixed 3.0-meter length optimizes bench and rack-mount configurations
• Voltage rating supports standard laboratory signal sources and sensor excitation supplies
• One adapter required per sensor in multi-sensor measurement setups
– Typical Applications
• Power measurement systems migrating from E-Series or 8480 sensors to P-Series meters
• Multi-point power monitoring with legacy sensor installations
• Bench-top RF and microwave power characterization
• System integration where sensor and meter separation exceeds direct connection distances
– Compatibility & Integration
The N1917B pairs with Keysight’s P-Series power meter ecosystem, which delivers 30 MHz video bandwidth and 100 Msamples per second continuous sampling. Integration with BenchVue software (BV0007B Power Meter/Sensor Control and Analysis app) enables automated instrument control, data logging, and test sequencing without custom programming.
Alternative cable lengths are available: the N1917C (10 m / 31 ft) and N1917D (1.8 m / 6 ft) accommodate different spatial requirements. One N1917B adapter is required for each sensor in the measurement chain.
