The Agilent HP Keysight 85093C is a two-port RF electronic calibration module (ECal) that enables fast, accurate vector network analyzer calibrations across 300 kHz to 9 GHz. Operating through a single 3.5 mm connection, it delivers full two-port calibration in a single connection, eliminating the complexity and setup time associated with traditional mechanical calibration kits. The module functions as a NIST-traceable transfer standard, conveying factory calibration accuracy directly to compatible network analyzers via USB control. Solid-state switching and fully traceable electronic impedance standards ensure repeatability better than 0.02 dB while reducing operator interaction and connector wear.

– Compatibility & Integration
The 85093C integrates directly with Keysight PNA and ENA series network analyzers through USB control. Legacy 8753 and 8720 series systems with firmware revision 7.68 or higher support ECal module control via the 85097B interface kit. Mixed connector options including Type-N 50 ohm and 7-16 connectors are available for this ECal module family.
