Verification kits
Verification kits are used to verify the performance
specifications of an Agilent 8510 system. All kits
include a precision Z
o
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
2.4 mm) 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.
