ECal

ECal is a complete solid-state calibration solution. Every ECal module contains
electronic standards that are automatically switched into position during a
calibration. These electronic standards have been measured at the factory and
the data stored within the memory of the ECal module. The FieldFox uses this
stored data, along with the measured data, to calculate the error terms for a
measurement calibration.
You can perform the following calibrations with ECal:
 1-Port Reflection calibration
 Full 2-Port calibration
All Agilent USB ECal modules are supported. ECal modules are available in a
variety of connector types, covering many frequency ranges. For information
about available ECal modules, see
