Verification kits
Verification kits are used to verify that a network
analyzer is operating within its specified performance.
Agilent Technologies offers verification kits that include
precision airlines, mismatch airlines, and precision fixed
attenuators. All verification kits include measurement
data and uncertainties which are traceable to the U.S.
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

Test port return cables
Test port cables are available in the 7 mm, 3.5 mm,
Type-N, 2.4 mm, and 1.0 mm connector types
1
. The
configurations and performance for all cables are
described in the tables on the opposite page. All cable
ends connect directly to the special rugged test port of
the network analyzer test set.
Agilent offers two cable designs: semi-rigid and flexible.
Semi-rigid cables offer excellent performance and are
suitable for applications where the connectors of the DUT
are “in-line” or parallel. Flexible cables are ideal for manu-
facturing environments since they are more rugged and
have a tighter bending radius than semi-rigid cables.
Semi-rigid cables are warranted for 90 days;
flexible cables are warranted for one year.
Either a single long cable or a shorter cable set can
connect a coaxial device to the test set. A single cable
with an appropriate test port adapter is best for applica-
tions where the DUT requires a connection next to the
test port for mechanical rigidity. A set of cables offers the
flexibility required to position the test devices away from
the test set.
Test port adapter sets
The 85130 series test port adapter sets protect the test
set port when connecting devices to the test port. These
adapters convert the rugged test set port to a
connection that can be mated with the device under test.
Each set contains a male and a female adapter.

85043C racked system kit
85043C racked system kit is a rack standing 132 cm
(52 in) high, with a width of 60 cm (23.6 in), and a depth
of 80 cm (32 in). Complete with support rails and AC power
distribution (suitable for 50 to 60 Hz, 100 to 240 VAC),
the kit includes rack mounting hardware for all instru-
ments. Thermal design is such that no rack fan is needed.
Bias networks
The 11612 bias networks apply DC as close to the device
as possible, bypassing the test set's internal shunt resistor.
These bias networks are especially useful when measuring
DC parameters of semiconductor devices.
