The Agilent 85032B type-N calibration kit is used to calibrate Agilent network analyzers up to 6 GHz for measurements of components with 50 ohm type-N connectors. The 85032B calibration kit contains the following: One male and one female open termination. One male and one female short termination. One male and one female 50 ohm load. Two type-N-male to 7-mm adapters (included with Option 100). Two type-N-female to 7-mm adapters (included with Option 100). The broadband loads are instrument-grade, 50 ohm terminations that have been optimized for performance up to 6 GHz. The rugged internal structure provides for highly repeatable connections. A distributed resistive element on sapphire provides excellent stability and return loss. The opens and shorts are built from parts that are machined to the current state-of the-art precision machining. The short’s inner conductors have a one-piece construction, common with the shorting plane. This construction provides for extremely repeatable connections. The female open has a separate-piece inner conductor that is made from a low-dielectric-constant plastic to minimize compensation values. Both the opens and shorts are constructed so that the pin depth can be controlled very tightly, thereby minimizing phase errors. Some of the opens and shorts have offsets. The lengths of these offsets are designed so that the difference in phase of their reflection coefficients is approximately 180 degrees at all frequencies.
