Introduction
Purpose and Function
The Bird 4042E Series Channel Power Sensors are digital power sensors. The
4042E Series Channel power sensors are typically used to measure forward and
reflected average power on a 50 ohm RF transmission line in a frequency band
with an overall range of 100 to 1000 MHz. There are two maximum forward
power measurement options 50 or 500 watts with reflected power max 10 dB
below the forward Power levels, the 4042E sensor also provides VSWR readings.

The 4042E Power Sensor uses Ethernet communications for sensor control and
measurement data.
See
The 4042E Sensor is designed to transfer data over an Ethernet connection. The
power sensor requires an external power supply.
Each sensor is equipped with RF input and output connectors, one RJ-45
connector for Ethernet communications, a PTT connector, and a status indicator.
