Power Sensors Compatibility

P- Series power meters are compatible with all Agilent P- Series wideband
power sensors.

The P- Series power meters also operates with N8480 Series power sensors
and the existing 8480 Series and E- Series (E4410, E9300, and E9320)

ranges of power sensors.

Meter Uncertainty

Average Power Measurement Accuracy

• N1921A:

≤

± 0.2 dB or ±4.5 %

• N1922A:

≤

± 0.3 dB or ±6.7 %

For specifications when using an 8480, N8480 Series and E-Series sensors (except E9320A

range), refer to Lit Number 5965-6382E. For specifications when using an E932XA sensors, refer to
Lit Number 5980-1469E.

Specification is valid over –15 to +20 dBm, and a frequency range 0.5 to 10 GHz, DUT Max. SWR

< 1.27 for the N1921A, and a frequency range 0.5 to 40 GHz, DUT Max. SWR < 1.2 for the N1922A.
Averaging set to 32, in Free Run mode.
