Agilent Technologies 8510C manual Verification kits, Test port cables and adapters

Verification kits

Verification kits are used to verify the performance specifications of an Agilent 8510 system. All kits include a precision Zo airline, mismatched airline, and fixed attenuators. Measured data and uncer- tainties traceable to the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are included with each kit. Compliance with MIL-STD 45662A is available for an extra charge (Option 1BP). Option 002 provides verification kit data on magnetic tape for use with the 8510A/B.

Choose a verification kit for each connector type required.

Verification kit	Connector type	Frequency range (GHz)
85051B	7 mm	0.045 to 18
85053B	3.5 mm	0.045 to 26.5
85055A	Type-N	0.045 to 18
85057B	2.4 mm	0.045 to 50
R11645A	WR-28	26.5 to 40
Q11645A	WR-22	33 to 50
U11645A	WR-19	40 to 60
V11645A	WR-15	50 to 75
W11645A	WR-10	75 to 110

Test port cables and adapters

Test port cables and adapter sets are available for various connector types. Special test port adapter sets convert the rugged ports of the network ana- lyzer test set to the desired connector interface.

Each kit contains two adapters, one male and one female. Both the cables and the test port adapters have one special female connector which is designed to connect directly to the 3.5 mm test port (2.4 mm for 8517B). This side of the cable or adapter can only be connected to the test set port and cannot be mated to a standard 3.5 mm (or

2.4mm) male connector. Choose one of the config- urations shown.

Configuration A. This cable arrangement is for appli- cations where the device under test is connected directly to the test set port. This setup offers the best mechanical rigidity for device connection. To adapt the test set port (port 1) to the device under test, choose the appropriate special adapter set. In addition to converting the test port to the desired interface, these adapters also function as “test port savers” which protect the test set from damage and wear due to heavy use.
