Why Keysight’s Power Meters and Sensors? 

Reliable, high-performing solutions 

Every power meter and sensor from Keysight Technologies, Inc. consistently delivers great results. 

A sure investment for many years to come 

Code-compatibility between power meters reduces the need for re-coding. Not only that, all Keysight power meters are backward-compatible with most legacy power sensors. 

One specific application: One right solution Keysight offers a wide selection of power meters and sensors for practically all application needs—wireless communications, radar pulse measurements, component test and more. 

Global network support No matter where you are, Keysight is committed to giving you the 24-hour support you need regarding our products, applications or services. 

Keysight’s power meters have long been recognized as the industry standard for RF and microwave power measurements. 

The first palm-sized power meter from Keysight Technologies that delivers high lab quality RF power measurements for installation and maintenance or R&D lab environments.

Introducing the New Member of the Power Meter Family—the Keysight V3500A

Key features

− Broad 10 MHz to 6 GHz frequency range enables use in variety of applications, including test of mobile phones and infrastructures, WLAN devices, RFID readers, and WiMAX devices

− Large dynamic range of –60 dBm to +20 dBm measures various types of signals, either directly from the device-under-test or through layers of cabling and fixtures

− Integrated power sensor eliminates the need to carry a separate sensor and makes it the most compact and portable RF power measurement instrument

− Internal power reference enables self-calibration and excludes the need to perform independent calibration before using the instrument

− Compensate for cable losses with the Relative Offset function that can add an offset to the display ranging between –99.99 dB and +99.99 dB

− Absolute accuracy up to ±0.21 dB enables more precise characterization of devices, tighter test limits, and more accurate fixture calibration

The Keysight V3500A handheld RF power meter is a compact, portable instrument that makes lab quality RF power measurements in both field and R&D laboratory environments. With an absolute accuracy up to ±0.21 dB, a wide frequency range of 10 MHz to 6 GHz, and measurement range of –60 dBm to +20 dBm, the V3500A is suitable for a wide variety of RF measurement applications.

Its built-in power sensor eliminates the need for users to carry both an instrument and a separate sensor module, and the same sensor is used when duplicating tests or measurements for better repeatability.

Truly portable, the V3500A fits easily into your hand or a toolkit and optional loop holster carrying case with shoulder strap is also available to fit your need. To optimize flexibility, it’s capable of drawing operating power from batteries, an AC-DC converter module, or a computer via the USB interface. With its features and very attractive price, the V3500A truly redefines superior value.

High accuracy in both the lab and field

Whether it’s used in the field or on the factory floor, the Keysight V3500A makes lab quality RF measurements quickly and easily. Its absolute accuracy up to ±0.21 dB,enables more precise characterization of devices, tighter test limits, and more accurate fixture calibration. In the laboratory, it can be used as an RF power data-logger.

Using normal or high speed mode, it easily captures and transfers data to your personal computer through its built-in USB interface (cable supplied), allowing for trend or drift analysis. Despite its small package, the V3500A provides outstanding accuracy on the bench, replacing much larger and more expensive instrumentation.
