The Marconi IFR Aeroflex 6924S is a high-sensitivity diode power sensor designed for precise RF power measurements across the 30 kHz to 40 GHz frequency spectrum. It delivers calibrated power detection from -70 dBm to -20 dBm with ±0.25 dB typical accuracy and 0.01% resolution, making it ideal for telecommunications, radar, and microwave device characterization. The sensor integrates directly with industry-standard Aeroflex power meters via a multi-way socket connection and features a field-replaceable RF sensing assembly to minimize downtime during maintenance.
