The Agilent/Keysight EPM-442A is a dual-channel programmable power meter engineered for RF and microwave power measurements from 100 kHz to 110 GHz. This instrument delivers measurement accuracy of ±0.02 dB in logarithmic mode and ±0.5% in linear mode, with dynamic range up to 90 dB across compatible sensors. Its dual-channel architecture enables simultaneous power readings with difference and ratio functions (A-B, B-A, A/B, B/A).
