The Keysight U2041XA is a USB average power sensor delivering accurate measurements across 10 MHz to 6 GHz with a 96 dB dynamic range (-70 dBm to +26 dBm). Built for real-time RF and microwave power analysis, it captures up to 50,000 readings per second with zero dead time, ensuring every continuous pulse is measured. The sensor handles any modulated signal—including LTE and WLAN 802.11ac—with ±0.5 dB accuracy and 0.001 dB resolution.
