    General Information Verification Kit Overview The Keysight 85053B 3.5 mm verification kit provides a set of standards with known characteristics, traceable to a reference (golden) standard in Keysight Technologies calibration lab. This set of standards is used to verify your measurement calibration and also to verify that your network analyzer system is operating within its specifications.

  • Page 6: Calibration Definitions

    Incoming Inspection Calibration Definitions The 85053B verification kit is intended to be used with the 85033E and 85052B 3.5 mm calibration kits. Prior to performing a calibration with your network analyzer, the calibration kit must be selected and the calibration definitions for the devices in the kit installed in the network analyzer.
