The Rohde & Schwarz NRP110T is a thermal power sensor for precise average power measurements spanning DC to 110 GHz. Built for demanding aerospace, defense, and telecommunications applications, it delivers high sensitivity across an extensive dynamic range while remaining agnostic to signal modulation. The sensor connects via 1 mm male connector and operates through USB, integrating with the R&S NRP2 base unit, standard PCs, and Rohde & Schwarz instruments including signal generators, analyzers, and network analyzers.
