Test accessories
Test accessories such as test port cable are necessary for a complete measurement system using the E5063A. Order test accessories
in accordance with the desired measurement system.
Calibration kits
Calibration is an accuracy enhancement procedure that effectively reduces the system errors that cause uncertainty in network
measurement. Calibration kit is necessary to perform the calibration.
– Mechanical calibration kits include standards, such as opens, shorts and loads, which are measured by the network analyzer.
Choose a calibration kit for each connector type to be used.
– Electronic calibration (ECal) modules replace mechanical calibration standards with one solid-state calibration module that is
controlled by the network analyzer via USB. ECal modules provide many different impedances to the test ports which enables a
full two-port calibration to be performed quickly with a single connection. This technique reduces operator errors and connector
wear and abrasion.
