1. Specifications apply in CW and list/step sweep modes over the 15 to 35 ºC temperature range, with attenuator hold off
(normal operating mode). Degradation outside this range, for ALC power levels > –10 dBm, is typically < 0.3 dB. In ramp sweep
mode (with Option 007), specifications are typical. For instruments with type-N connectors (Option 1ED), specifications are

degraded typically 0.2 dB above 18 GHz. Specifications do not apply above the maximum specified power.
2. Options 550 and 567: 0.03dB/°C (typ) above 2 GHz.
3. Compatible with Agilent EPM Series (E4418B and E4419B) power meters.
