Keysight Handheld Power Meters

Videos

This video introduces Keysight Handheld Power Meters, compact and portable RF measurement tools designed for field technicians, R&D teams, and production engineers who require accurate, reliable power measurements without bulky instrumentation. These handheld meters integrate a built‑in power sensor, eliminating the need for external sensor modules and minimizing setup time. With ±0.21 dB accuracy and broad frequency coverage up to 6 GHz, they deliver lab‑grade performance in a pocket‑sized form factor. Their built‑in power reference supports self‑calibration, ensuring consistent accuracy over time and across varying environmental conditions—ideal for field maintenance, installation verification, and on‑site troubleshooting.


Handheld power meters support multiple power measurements including average power and peak‑related metrics depending on the test setup. Their wide dynamic range from –63 dBm to +20 dBm enables characterization of low‑power IoT devices, wireless communication systems, radar components, and RF amplifiers. The rugged, impact‑resistant enclosure protects the meter during transport and on‑site operation, while battery, AC‑to‑DC, or USB power options allow flexible deployment in remote locations. These capabilities make handheld power meters a versatile solution for teams requiring dependable measurements in both laboratory and field environments.
 

Key features include:

  • Built‑In Power Sensor: Eliminates the need for external sensors, enabling faster setup and consistent measurement performance.
  • Battery Powered: Internal battery supports stable field operation without external power sources.
  • Self‑Calibration: Built‑in power reference maintains high measurement accuracy without separate calibration steps.
  • Rugged Design: Impact‑resistant housing withstands drops, transportation, and harsh field environments.
  • Portable RF Measurements: Measure RF power up to 6 GHz with a wide dynamic range from –63 dBm to +20 dBm.
     

Handheld Power Meters provide portable, accurate RF power measurements with built‑in sensing, self‑calibration, rugged construction, and flexible power options. Ideal for field technicians and lab engineers, they deliver reliable performance for wireless, radar, IoT, and general RF testing.
