The Keysight (Agilent) V11644A is a mechanical calibration kit engineered for precise error correction of network analyzer systems operating in the 50 to 75 GHz millimeter-wave band. Built around WR-15 waveguide standards, this kit delivers the mechanical precision required for TRL (Thru-Reflect-Line) and TRM (Thru-Reflect-Match) calibration methodologies, enabling accurate characterization of high-frequency devices and passive components.
Technical Specifications
• Frequency Range: 50 to 75 GHz
• Waveguide Configuration: WR-15
• Calibration Methods: Thru-Reflect-Line (TRL) and Thru-Reflect-Match (TRM)
• Termination Return Loss: ≥38.2 dB, ≥40 dB
• Element SWR: ±1.025
– Key Features
• Precision airline standard for TRL calibration reference
• Flush short circuit standard for systematic error characterization
• Precision shim for fine mechanical alignment
• Fixed termination standard(s) with specified return loss performance
• Commercial calibration certificate included with each kit
• Dual screw lengths (long and short) for connector compatibility and repeatability
– Standard Inclusions
Each kit contains precision mechanical standards, termination elements, and hardware fasteners necessary for VNA calibration setup. Detailed component manifests are documented in the user manual and shipping container contents list.
– Compatibility & Integration
The V11644A integrates with Keysight (Agilent) network analyzer platforms including the 8510, 872x, and PNA series. TRL calibration functionality requires Keysight 8510 operating system firmware revision B.05.12 or later. Calibration kit definition files (.xkt format) are available for loading into VNA firmware to enable proper standard characterization and error correction algorithms.
