{{Spec | Bandwidth | 454A - 150 MHz (100 MHz @ 5 mV/div, 50 MHz @ 2 mV/div) }}
{{Spec | Deflection | 5 mV/div to 10 V/div, 1−2−5 }}
{{Spec | CRT | [[T4540]], P31 [[phosphor]] standard / P11 optional; +12/–1.96 kV acceleration }}
{{Spec | Weight | 13 kg / 29 lb }}

{{EndSpecs}}


With the input sensitivity set to 10 mV/div and above, the 454A has a vertical bandwidth of 150 MHz.
It is possible to cascade the Ch1/Ch2 input amplifiers to obtain a sensitivity of 400 μV/div at a bandwidth of 33 MHz.
At 5 mV/div it is 100 MHz, and at 2 mV/div it is 50 MHz.  


It is possible to cascade the channel-1 and channel-2 input amplifiers to obtain a sensitivity of 400 μV/div.
The 454 has two ±12 V probe power outputs for [[P6045]] probes.
In that configuration, the vertical bandwidth is 33 MHz.
 
The 454 weighs 29 pounds and consumes about 130 watts. 
It has two ±12 V probe power outputs for [[P6045]] probes.
