Keysight N1923/4A Wideband Power Sensor User’s Guide Introduction General Information Overview of the N1923/4A This chapter gets you started with the N1923/4A wideband power sensor.
N1923/4A wideband power sensor. You can also find a copy of this guide on the documentation CD supplied with the 8990B peak power analyzer. Figure 1-1 N1923A and N1924A wideband power sensors Keysight N1923/4A User’s Guide...
Containers and materials identical to those used in the factory packaging are available through Keysight Sales and Service offices. If the device is being returned to Keysight for servicing, attach a tag indicating the type of service required, return address, model number, and serial number. Also mark the container as FRAGILE to assure careful handling.
Connect the N1923/4A cable to the 8990B peak power analyzer RF channel input as shown in the following figure. Ensure that you align the red dots on the N1923/ 4A cable and the 8990B connector.
