The HP 85025 and 85026 series detectors and the HP 85025C detector adapter require
HP 8757A firmware revision 2.0 or higher. To upgrade previous revisions, order the
HP 11614A firmware enhancement.
HP 85027 Series Directional Bridges (ac/dc)
The HP 85027 series directional bridges are designed to operate with
either the HP 8757 in ac or dc detection modes. These bridges offer
high directivity, excellent test port match, and a measurement range of
up to 50 GHz in coax.

System Accuracy
Transmission Loss or Gain Measurement Accuracy
Transmission loss or gain measurements are made relative to a 0 dB reference point established at calibration. Transmission measurement
uncertainty = dynamic power accuracy + mismatch uncer tainty.
Dynamic power accuracy is the measurement uncertainty due to
the change in power level between calibration and the measurement.
Mismatch uncertainty is the uncertainty due to reflections in the measurement setup. The frequency response errors of the source, detectors,
bridge and power splitter are removed via calibration.
