The Agilent/Keysight N4697F is a precision flexible cable set engineered for high-frequency test applications in network analyzer environments. This dual-cable assembly delivers reliable connectivity across demanding measurement scenarios, combining two complementary cable configurations—both utilizing 1.85 mm connectors with NMD (Non-Magnetic Device) technology—to support flexible Device Under Test (DUT) integration and test port mating.

– Key Features
NMD connectors feature larger-than-standard coupling threads for enhanced mechanical stability during test port engagement. The female NMD connectors on the test set end are purpose-designed for network analyzer test ports and do not accept standard male connectors. Male NMD connectors incorporate dual-thread geometry: larger threads accommodate test port adapters, while standard threads enable direct DUT coupling. The flexible cable design facilitates efficient routing in confined test benches without compromising signal integrity across the full DC to 67 GHz bandwidth.
– Typical Applications
Ideal for network analyzer-based measurement systems requiring flexible interconnect between test ports and devices under test. The dual-cable configuration supports both port-to-port extension and port-to-DUT mating scenarios in laboratory and production environments.
– Compatibility & Integration
Designed specifically for Keysight network analyzers equipped with male Ruggedized-1.85 mm test ports. The included rugged female connector mates directly with network analyzer test ports, enabling direct port connection without additional adapters.
