1.85mm TRL/LRL VNA Calibration Kits
7860A Series

Features
1.85mm Connectors
DC to 70 GHz
High Performance
Broad VNA Coverage
Fixed Load Calibration

Description

These precision 1.85mm calibration kits are designed for use with a broad range of vector network analyzers (VNAs). The components in the kits are configured for use in making error-corrected TRM/TRL/LRL measurements of devices supplied with 1.85mm connectors, from DC to 70 GHz.

Each kit includes a full complement of calibration standards (shorts, opens, and fixed loads) and can be configured for any combination of VNA or test set/cable connectors. User-specified VNA software and a set of adapters are included. All kit components come housed in an attractive, foam-lined, wood instrument case.

TRM/TRL/LRL Calibration

The 7860A series kits are configured for three calibration methods (TRM/TRL/LRL). Source match can also be measured using the 3.00 cm air line with the short circuit. The table below shows the frequency ranges, calibration methods, and the standards used to perform a complete 2-port calibration to 70 GHz.

Note: Each kit also includes a set of adapters that is user specified
per the Option Finder below. (Click here for details.)
Ordering Options
To specify the test port adapter and VNA software options you need, simply add two digits to the end of the kit model number (as shown). The first digit indicates your desired test port adapter set, and the second digit indicates the VNA software option number that corresponds to the test set you will be calibrating.

The example in this diagram shows the combination of digits needed to order a 7860A kit with the adapters and software needed for use in calibrating an Agilent PNA that has 1.85mm or 2.4mm test ports.
