Keysight N1912A/101 Dual Channel Power Meter with Front Panel Sensor and Power Ref Connectors

The Keysight N1912A is a dual‑channel P‑Series power meter designed for average, peak, and peak‑to‑average RF power measurements. It supports sampling at 100 Msamples/sec and works with Keysight’s sensors to cover a range of frequencies depending on the sensor used. The instrument is LXI Class‑C compliant, offering LAN‑based control, an integrated web interface. The N1912A is suited for applications requiring high‑speed pulse analysis, RF system characterization, and automated test environments.

P-Series Power Meters

The P-Series power meters provide peak, average, peak-to-average ratio power measurements, time-gated and free run modes, rise time, fall time and pulse width measurements. The P-Series power meters are compatible with the 8480, E-Series and new P-Series power sensors. The P-Series power meters have a different sensor input connector than the EPM and EPM-P Series power meters, so it is necessary to use adapter cables.

P-Series consists of:

• N1911A Power Meter (single channel)

• N1912A Power Meter (dual channel)

BenchVue Software

The N1911A/12A P-series power meters are supported by the Keysight BenchVue software. BenchVue makes it easy to control your power meter to log data and visualize measurements in a wide array of display options without any programming. Simply connect the sensor to your PC installed BenchVue BV0007B Power Meter/Sensor Control and Analysis app to perform complex pulse analysis and standard average power measurement.
