Description
These7-16 TRL/LRL calibration kits feature both male and female standards, a torque wrench and an open-end wrench for precise, repeatable connections, and adapter sets and calibration constants on computer media. The kit components are shown in Table 1 below. Air lines come as a set (2735A) as shown in the photos (right). See 2735A 7-16 Air Line Set for detailed air line specifications.

This set of airlines provides the user with the components needed to perform full two-port TRL/LRL (Through-Reflect-Line or Line-Reference-Line) calibrations to 8.0 GHz. The air line set consists of three high-precision air lines of various lengths that meet NIST and Agilent's recommendation of 30 degrees phase margin. Test port adapter and software options are shown in table 3 (below).

Connector Description
The Maury 7-16 connectors utilized in these kits are rugged calibration grade connectors that exceed the requirements for IEC169-4 reference grade and BSEN 122190 grade 0 specifications. Although they are rated for a frequency range of DC to 7.5 GHz they are useable up to 8.0 GHz.

TRM/TRL/LRL Calibration
The components in these kits are configured for use in making error-corrected TRL/LRL measurements of devices supplied with 7-16 connectors, from DC to 8 GHz. With the components in these kits, users can perform three types of calibrations: 1) TRM, TRL and LRL two-port calibrations from 0 to 18 GHz; 2) SOLT (Short-Open-Load-Thru) one-port or two-port; and 3) Short-Open-(air line + load) one-port calibration for gated measurements.1 Source match can also be measured using the 15cm air line and provided short circuit.
