NOTE ECal modules are not included in the 85097B VNA interface kit, but are
ordered separately. Refer to the Electronic Calibration Module Reference
Guide (part number N4693-90001) for information on the types and
specifications of ECal modules.
Interface Unit
The interface unit (shown in
for ECal modules. The interface can connect to one or two ECal modules. Power is
automatically turned off when an ECal module is disconnected.
NOTE If you are using an 8506xA microwave module with a serial number below
800, a jumper must be installed in the module to make it compatible with the
interface unit. Contact Agilent for information about returning your module
for this modification. Contact information can be found in
page 2-4.
Shielded Cables, DB25 to DB25
The shielded cables (shown in
cables are included in the kit. The cables connect between the VNA and the interface unit
and between the interface unit and one or two ECal modules (except N469x series). The
length of each shielded cable is 1.8 m.
Adapter Cable, DB25 to AMP Champ (Option 100)
The adapter cable (shown in
connector. The adapter cable connects N469x (microwave) ECal modules to the interface
