Transmitter Power Monitor
TPM Series
}
Low Cost in-situ power measurement solution designed for operation inside the transmitter or after the combiner.
}
In-line calibration capability allows for greater accuracy in a single application (with an accurate power reference).
}
Integrated non-directional coupler allows for spectral analysis of the signal in minimal space requirements.
}
Accurately measures true average power for digitally modulated systems.
}
+/- 5% of reading accuracy for both forward and reflected power (10:1 ratio for forward to reflected power)
