– Typical Applications
This kit calibrates and verifies network analyzer performance across the millimeter-wave band. Engineers employ it to confirm valid measurement calibrations, assess system dynamic range accuracy, and characterize waveguide-based RF components. It serves as a traceable standard for validating attenuator performance, mismatch conditions, and overall system integrity in 40–60 GHz applications.
– Compatibility & Integration
Designed for integration with Keysight PNA Series network analyzers. Operates with complementary calibration standards such as the Keysight U11644A. The UG-383/U-M flange ensures compatibility with standard WR-19 waveguide systems.
