Maury MW - VNA Calibration Standard - Fixed Load Series
- Calibration-grade metrology standards
- Used for VNA calibration and/or calibration validation
A precision fixed termination (or load) consists of an immovable, (fixed) termination which, when mated to the end of a trans-mission line or cable, absorbs nearly all of the signal energy traveling toward it. An ideal “matched” condition exists when a termination with an impedance value of Z0, is connected to the end of a transmission line or cable that also has a characteristic impedance of Z0. Such an ideal “matched” condition (one with no mismatch between the termination and its mated line or cable) is critical if a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 1.0:1 is to be achieved in a system with a 50 or 75 ohm impedance value. Simply put, the more closely the 1.0:1 ratio is approached, the more accurate the measurements that can be made from a system.

More Product Information
- Ideal for applications requiring high ENR and immunity to large incident RF power
- Low VSWR
- Built-in isolator
The NC3400 Series coaxial AWGN noise sources are an excellent choice for applications requiring high ENR and immunity to large incident RF power, such as ATE, radiometer, and radar systems. The calibration accuracy and flatness of the NC3400 Series noise sources are enhanced by their low VSWR. The built-in isolator provides almost constant output impedance as the noise source bias is switched on and off. The isolator also protects the noise diode from incident RF power (consult the factory for higherpower units).
An SMA female connector is standard for the RF output and a BNC female connector is standard for the bias input. Other connectors are available as options.
The CSR family of calibration substrates delivers the highest accuracy available due to the high quality of each substrate. The calibration standards are manufactured using rugged, hard gold, which ensures a long lifetime.

Coaxial air lines are air-dielectric transmission lines with highly accurate dimensions that can be used as fundamental impedance standards in measurement and calibration applications, and may also be used to establish reference positions for measurements.
Bead supported air lines offer greater convenience and easier connections (the center conductor is automatically aligned by the dielectric bead for easy connection); beadless air lines offer better impedance and electrical length accuracies, as well as lower VSWR (the center conductor floats free in the air line body, and the male connector nut is retractable to facilitate insertion of the center conductor contact before the thread- on connection tightened.
