Agilent/Keysight 85029B

The Agilent/Keysight 85029B is a 7 mm verification kit that validates the calibrated performance of network analyzer systems, particularly the Keysight 8753 series. It contains precision devices with 7 mm connectors and NIST-traceable magnitude and phase data across all four S-parameters at specified frequencies. Verification is performed by measuring the included standards and comparing results against supplied uncertainty limits.

The kit operates across 300 kHz to 6 GHz and includes three verification devices: a 20 dB attenuator, a 50 dB attenuator, and a mismatch attenuator - all in 7 mm connector format.

Technical Specifications

• Frequency Range: 300 kHz to 6 GHz


• Connector Type: 7 mm precision interface


• Included Verification Devices: 7 mm 20 dB attenuator, 7 mm 50 dB attenuator, 7 mm mismatch attenuator


• S-Parameter Data: NIST-traceable magnitude and phase for all four parameters at discrete frequencies


• Uncertainty Basis: Sum of factory production test system measurement uncertainty and system-under-test uncertainty

Key Features

• Verification process compares measured data against NIST-traceable standards


• System passes verification when measured results fall within supplied uncertainty limits


• Precision 7 mm connectors ensure repeatable connections


• Complete traceability chain from NIST calibration reference

Typical Applications

• Top-down verification of network analyzer calibration status


• Quality assurance validation of measurement system performance


• RF and microwave network analysis verification

Compatibility & Integration Designed primarily for Keysight 8753 measurement systems. Option 001 provides compatible verification data for the Keysight 8702B lightwave component analyzer. The 85029B verification kit requires use with a Keysight 85031B calibration kit to complete the measurement verification workflow.
