Measurement Accessories
A complete list of RF and microwave test accessories
is available on our Web site: 
www.agilent.com/find/accessories
Accessories are available in these connector types: 
50 ohm Type-N, 3.5 mm, 7 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.92 mm, 1.85 mm, 1.0 mm, 
and waveguide. 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.
Cables and adapter sets
Agilent offers cables in the following types:
•  single cables in semi-rigid and flexible 
•  cable sets in semi-rigid and flexible 
There are also adapter sets available that protect the test port 
and convert the port to the desired connector interface. These 
kits contain:
•  one male adapter 
•  one female adapter 
To attain the best mechanical rigidity for device connection, use 
a single cable and the appropriate special adapter set. To attain 
the greatest flexibility for device connection, use a cable set.
Calibration kits
Coaxial measurements
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 con-
trolled by the network analyzer via USB, to present many differ-
ent impedances to the test ports. A full two-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)
Standard, includes the devices in the economy kit and adds:
•  sliding load standards (male and female) or a series of   
 offset shorts
Precision, includes the devices in the economy kit and adds:
• 50 ohm airline(s) for TRL calibration
• TRL adapters
Waveguide measurements
For waveguide measurements, Agilent offers mechanical calibration 
kits that include:
• waveguide-to-coax adapters (X, P, K, R, Q, U, V)
• precision waveguide section
• flush short circuit
• fixed terminations
• straight section
