– Compatibility & Integration
USB connectivity eliminates external power dependencies. The sensor integrates with Keysight BenchVue software (BV0007B Power Meter/Sensor Control and Analysis App) for control, data logging, and visualization without programming. Standard package includes 5 ft (1.5 m) USB cable, two BNC male to SMB female trigger cables (50 Ω, 1.5 m), with optional extended cables available (10 ft and 16.4 ft). Backward-compatible with most legacy Keysight power sensors.
