  • Page 10 Calibration Kit Overview Calibration Kit Overview The Keysight 85032F type-N 50calibration kit is used to calibrate Keysight network analyzer systems for measurements of components with type-N connectors up to 9 GHz. The standards in this calibration kit allow you to perform simple 1- or 2-port calibrations.
  • Page 11 If the calibration definitions for the kit are not permanently installed in the network analyzer, they must be manually entered. Refer to your network analyzer user’s guide for instructions. Options There are several optional adapters available for the 85032F. See Table 6-1 on page 6-3 for further information.
  • Page 12 Table 6-1 on page 6-3 to verify a complete shipment. Check for damage. The foam-lined storage case provides protection during shipping. If the case or any device appears damaged, or if the shipment is incomplete, contact Keysight Technologies. See Contacting Keysight on page 5-4.

  • Page 17 They are, however, important supplemental characteristics related to electrical performance. Keysight Technologies verifies the mechanical characteristics of the devices in this kit with special gaging processes and electrical testing. This ensures that the device connectors do not exhibit any center conductor protrusion or improper pin depth when the kit leaves the factory.
  • Page 18 When measuring pin depth, the measured value (resultant average of three or more measurements) is not the true value. Always compare the measured value with the observed pin depth limits in Table 2-3 to evaluate the condition of device connectors. 85032F...

  • Page 27 Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Gaging Connectors Gaging Connectors The gages available from Keysight Technologies are intended for preventive maintenance and troubleshooting purposes only (see Table 6-2 on page 6-4 for part number information). They are effective in detecting excessive center conductor protrusion or recession, and conductor damage on DUTs, test accessories, and the calibration kit devices.Do not use the gages for precise pin depth measurements.
