As a benchtop meter, the 12000 series provide a standalone solution for capturing, displaying, and analyzing peak and average RF power in both the time and statistical domains through an intuitive, multi-touch touchscreen display. The Model 12000 RF Power Meter utilizes up to four Berkeley Nucleonics’ [RF Pulse Power Sensor](https://www.berkeleynucleonics.com/122xx) families of USB RF power sensors with industry-leading performance and capabilities either independently or for synchronized multi-channel measurements of CW, modulated, and pulsed signals. Providing the ultimate flexibility, the 12000 series of sensors can be disconnected and independently used as standalone instruments. _Please contact for alternative solutions or recommended replacement models._ ###### Model 12000 RF POWER METER CONFIGURATOR input[type='checkbox'] {
