About the Multiport Test System

Introduction

Introduction
The Agilent Multiport Test System makes quick and accurate S-parameter measurements of
both active and passive devices with up to four ports.
The multiport test system consists of an Agilent network analyzer, an Agilent multiport test
set, a system controller (PC) running the balanced measurement software, and interconnect
cabling.
Combining a unique multiport hardware architecture with a fast multiple-term calibration
algorithm, the multiport test system provides true multiport vector error-correction while
preserving the accuracy of the underlying network analyzer.
