These power sensors connect directly to the POWER REF.
8481D
8484A
Prior to calibration, an Agilent 11708A 30 dB reference attenuator
should be connected between the power sensor and the POWER
REF. Remove this attenuator from the power sensor input before
making measurements.
8483A
This power sensor requires a 75
Ω
(f) to 50
Ω
(m) N-Type adapter
(1250-0597) to connect to the POWER REF. Remove this adapter
before making measurements.
R8486A

V8486A
W8486A
R8486D
Q8486D
These waveguide power sensors have two connectors. Use the
N-Type connector to calibrate the power meter.
8481B
8482B
These power sensors are configured with an attenuator. Prior to
calibration this attenuator must be removed. Replace the attenuator
before making measurements.
8485A
This power sensor requires an APC 3.5 (f) to 50
Ω
(m) N-Type
adapter (08485-60005) to connect to the POWER REF.Remove this
adapter before making measurements.
8485D
Prior to calibration, an Agilent 11708A 30 dB reference attenuator
and an APC 3.5 (f) to 50
Ω
(m) N-Type adapter (08485-60005) should
be connected between the power sensor and the POWER REF.
Remove this attenuator and adaptor before making measurements.
