Introduction

Description

The Bird 5012D, 5016D, 5017D, 5017D-AV, 5018D, and 5019D Wideband Power
Sensors (WPS) are Thruline sensors that can measure average, peak, or burst
power, VSWR, crest factor, and Complementary Cumulative Distribution
Function (CCDF). They can be used with the Bird 5000-EX and 5000-XT Digital
Power Meters (DPM), Site Analyzer, SignalHawk, Bird Virtual Power Meter
(VPM) Software, and the Bird RF Meter Android App.

Note:

Firmware upgrades extending the WPS’s capabilities may

be periodically released. For the latest firmware upgrade, contact
Bird Customer Service at (440) 248-1200 or visit our website at
