The Rohde & Schwarz ZN-ZE104 is a 2-port calibration unit for vector network analyzers operating from 5 kHz to 4.5 GHz. It delivers plug-and-play calibration via USB with automatic detection and data transfer to the VNA, eliminating manual setup overhead. The unit accommodates both N-type and 3.5 mm-compatible connectors, with each port independently configurable as male or female to match your measurement interface. All ports present 50 Ohm impedance.
