The Agilent/Keysight E4412A is a wide dynamic range CW power sensor engineered for precise RF and microwave power measurements from 10 MHz to 18 GHz. Operating across a 90 dB dynamic range, it measures power levels from -70 dBm to +20 dBm (100 pW to 100 mW) with measurement speeds up to 400 readings per second when paired with compatible E4416A meters. The sensor features a 50 Ω Type-N male input, excellent SWR performance, and internal EEPROM storage of calibration factors, linearity data, and temperature compensation for minimal measurement uncertainty. An optional E4412A-H02 extends the lower frequency limit to 100 kHz for broader application coverage.

– Compatibility & Integration
The E4412A connects exclusively to Keysight E44XX-Series power meters: EPM series (N1913A/14A, N1913B/14B, E4418B/19B), EPM-P series (E4416A/17A), and P-Series (N1911A/12A). Integration requires a compatible sensor cable such as the 11730A. Earlier power meter generations (430-Series, E1416A, 70100A) are not supported.
