Microwave Counter, Power Meter and DVM in One Portable Package Technical Overview

Working together, we can anticipate— and apply—the latest advances in electronic technology, accelerating your progress toward new successes. Simplify installation and maintenance of point-to- point microwave links Whether you are installing or main- taining cell-site to base-station links, business-to-business communication links, digital radio links (along rail- roads, pipelines or power lines) or even satellite ground stations, installing and maintaining microwave links typically requires three pieces of equipment. These are a CW microwave counter, a true power meter and a dc DVM. The 53140 Series reduces the weight, volume and hassle of carrying multiple pieces of equipment in the field by combining these three instruments into one. Its rubber bumpers make it rugged and ready to withstand the elements. A soft carrying case option makes transit to the field easy and has a pouch for accessory storage. You will not have to worry about ac power availability at the site with the 53140 Series’ battery option. Plus its LCD display with a switchable backlite saves on battery life. Everything you need for the installation and maintenance of microwave links: – A choice of frequency counter ranges up to 46 GHz – A true power meter to meet your “laboratory-accuracy” require - ments in the field – A dc DVM to assist with antenna alignment and telecom power supply measurements – Lightweight, rugged and a battery option for complete portability in the field

budget dollars by combining three instruments into one For measurements used in microwave component and assembly testing, the compact, three-in-one 53140 Series reduces the need for expensive ATE rack space. The 53140 Series comes ATE-ready with both GPIB and RS-232 SCPI programmable interfaces. A rack mount kit is optional. Is the convenience of measuring frequency and power with a single input more important to you than power measurement accuracy? Then the 53150 Series of CW Microwave Counters may be for you. For more information, visit our website at: www.keysight.com/find/53150A CW microwave counter up to 46 GHz Choose the frequency range you need. The 53140 Series has three ranges; 20 GHz, 26.5 GHz and 46 GHz. The ultra-wideband microwave input cov- ers from 50 MHz up to the maximum frequency. This reduces the need for channel switching. You don’t have to wait for resolution that is not needed as the resolution is selectable from The 53140 Series Measurement Suite 1 Hz to 1 MHz. For better measure- ment accuracy over time and tem- perature, an optional oven timebase is available. True power meter with a wide selection of sensors The 53140 Series true power meter provides laboratory instrument accu- racy in a rugged, field-ready package. Obtain 0.01 dB resolution and 0.02 dB basic instrument accuracy where you need it most—on site. The graphical peaking meter allows you to make fast and easy power adjustments. For more flexibility, a wide range of power sen- sors is available (Keysight Technolo - gies, Inc. 8480 Series*) with a power range from –70 dBm to +44 dBm. DC DVM for AGC and power supply measurements A ± 50 Vdc DVM monitors the mi- crowave receiver’s AGC circuitry for assistance during antenna alignment. The DVM can also check the –48 Vdc power supplies typically found at telecom sites. Advanced instrument features that help make the job easier The Keysight 53140 Series has the fea - tures you expect in a precision labora- tory instrument. Relative readings for both frequency and power measure- ments show deviations from nominal values. Offset reading allows indirect measurement of either final frequency or power values or both. Averaging smooths out rapidly changing mea- surement displays for ease of viewing. * Keysight announced the discontinu- ance of the 848x “A,” “B” and “H” model power sensors that you may use with your counter. However, depending on your power measurement requirements, several of these sensor models can still be purchased from Keysight for use with your microwave frequency counter. www.keysight.com/find/contactus
