The R&S ZN-Z51 allows a free/mixed port configuration with possible connector types
N (m/f), 3.5 mm (m/f) and 7/16 (m/f).
With an N(f)-type CalU serving as base unit, for each available port an alternative con-
nector type N(m), 3.5 mm (m/f) or 7/16 (m/f) can be selected. For N(f)-type models
alternative connectors can be also be retrofitted, but the calibration unit has to be sent
to service for that and has to be characterized again. See the data sheet for ordering
information.
The frequency range for 7/16 connector ports is limited to 100 kHz to 7.5 GHz.

The multiport calibration units R&S ZV-Z58, R&S ZV-Z59, R&S ZN-Z152 and R&S ZN-
Z154 are especially suited for R&S ZVT vector network analyzers.

The units contain calibration standards that are electronically switched when a calibra-
tion is performed. The calibration kit data for the internal standards are also stored in
the calibration unit, so that the analyzer can calculate the error terms and apply the cal-
ibration without any further input.
