Measurement accessories
A complete line of RF test accessories can be found in the Agilent RF and Microwave Test Accessories Catalog (literature number 5968-4314EN) or by visiting
www.agilent.com/find/mta
Accessories are available in these connector types: 50 ohm Type-N, 3.5 mm, 7 mm, and 75 ohm Type-N. Test port cables and a calibration kit should be added for a complete measurement system. A verification kit is used to verify corrected system performance.
Test-port cables
Test port cables are used to connect the network analyzer to the device under test. N6314A 50 ohm Type-N RF cable, 300 kHz to 9 GHz
Includes one 610 mm (24 in) cable with male connectors (part number 8120-8862)
N6315A 50 ohm Type-N RF cable, 300 kHz to 9 GHz
Includes one 610 mm (24 in) cable with both female and male connectors (part number 8121-0027)
11500E cable, APC 3.5 mm (m), DC to 26.5 GHz
Includes one 610 mm (24 in) with male connectors.
3.5 mm (f) to 50 ohm Type-N (m) adapters (1250-1744) are recommended to connect to the network analyzer’s test ports.
11500F 150 cm cable, APC 3.5 mm (m), DC to 26.5 GHz
Includes one 1520 mm (60 in) with male connectors.
3.5 mm (f) to 50 ohm Type-N (m) adapters (1250-1744) are recommended to connect to the network analyzer’s test ports.
Calibration kits
Mechanical calibration kits include standards, such as opens, shorts and loads, which are measured by the network analyzer for increased measurement accuracy.
Electronic calibration (ECal) kits replace mechanical calibration standards with one solid-state calibration module that is controlled by the network analyzer to present many different impedances to the test ports. A full two-, three-, or four-port calibration can be performed quickly with a single connection. This technique reduces operator errors and connector wear and abrasion.
Choose a calibration kit for each connector type to be used.
Economy, includes:
• open standards (male and female)
• short standards (male and female)
• fixed-termination standards (male and female)
• in-series adapters
Standard, includes the devices in the economy kit and adds:
• connector tools
Precision, includes the devices in the economy kit and adds:
• 50 ohm airline for TRL calibration
• TRL adapters
