Keysight N5532B Sensor Module
The Keysight N5532B Sensor Module is an industrial automation and RF measurement precision sensor module. With a built-in power splitter at the input as a power sensor, the module offers accurate power measurement to connected test systems. It is designed for use in the N5531X and N5531S systems, combining the N9030B PXA Signal Analyzer with the N9091EM0E Measuring Receiver application or a PSA Spectrum Analyzer with option 233. It mates with some of the Keysight power meters, including the E4418/19, the E4416/17, and the N1911/12/13/14 Series, to provide calibrated results for the true power of the source under test. It requires an adapter to be plugged into the N1911 or N1912 Series power meters.
Available in four frequency bands, the N5532B Sensor Module offers the convenience of accepting a range of measurement needs. One operates between 100 kHz and 4.2 GHz and another between 10 MHz and 18 GHz. One operates between 100 kHz and 4.2 GHz, another between 10 MHz and 18 GHz, a third between 30 MHz and 26.5 GHz, and a fourth between 30 MHz and 50 GHz with an optional connector adaptor. With precise measurement of power levels between -20 dBm and +30 dBm, equivalent to between 10 μW and 1 W, individual calibration factor information is delivered on each sensor module on a CD-ROM and floppy disc in order to make power meter readings valid and representative of source output. This special calibration is necessary in order to maintain measurement integrity in use at the higher frequencies.
Designed to withstand rigorous environmental specifications, the sensor module provides accurate impedance match and low insertion loss across its operating frequency bands. In its innovative design, the sensor module facilitates full test and verification of RF systems and serves as a building block in communications test and industrial process measurement and control applications. Using the Keysight N5532B Sensor Module, there exists a reliable means of performing accurate and repeatable measurement of power in technically demanding environments. With its rugged construction and stable calibration, it is simple to include in automated test systems and communications systems in order to facilitate mission-critical validation and troubleshooting exercises in RF systems with repeatable precision in harsh conditions.
