Definitions

•Specifications describe the performance of parameters covered by the product warranty (temperature

–0 to 55 °C, unless otherwise noted.)

•Ty p i c a l describes additional product performance information that is not covered by the product

warranty. It is performance beyond specification that 80% of the units exhibit with a 95% confidence

level over the temperature range 20 to 30 °C. Typical performance does not include measurement

uncertainty.

•Nominal values indicate expected performance or describe product performance that is useful in the

application of the product, but is not covered by the product warranty.

•Characteristic Performance describes performance parameter that the product is expected to meet

before it leaves the factory, but is not verified in the field and is not covered by the product warranty. A

characteristic includes the same guard bands as a specification..

U3047AM12 Description

Description

The Agilent U3047AM12 is a Multiport Test Set that adds 12 ports to extend the 4-port network analyzer to

16 full crossbar test ports with N-Port calibration capability.

The Agilent U3047AM12 has the following key features:

• 12 test ports (1.85 mm male connectors)

• Low Loss Mechanical RF switching

• Frequency Range of Operation: 10 MHz - 67 GHz

• Test Set I/O interface for operational control with the network analyzer. Option 551 is required for

N-port calibration. An external personal computer is not required.

The N5247A PNA-X and the N5227A PNA network analyzer will be referred to throughout this document as

the network analyzer. The U3047AM12 will be referred to as the test set.

Verifying the Shipment

To verify the contents shipped with your product, refer to the “Box Content List” included with the

shipment.

Inspect the shipping container. If the container or packing material is damaged, it should be kept until the

contents of the shipment have been checked mechanically and electrically. If there is physical damage

refer to “Contacting Agilent” on page 78. Keep the damaged shipping materials (if any) for inspection by

the carrier and an Agilent Technologies representative.

U3047AM12 Description

Network Analyzer Requirements

All network analyzers require Option 551 for multiport operation (N-Port error correction and measurement

capability). Ta b l e 1 provides a listing of other network analyzer option requirements. The network analyzer’s

frequency range must be equal to or exceed that of the test set so that the measurement system covers the

full frequency range of the test set.

The test set files indicated in Table 1 must be installed into the analyzer’s file directory:

c:\Program Files\Agilent\Network Analyzer\testsets

Ensure that the network analyzer has the latest version of firmware installed. The following web site links

provide the necessary information needed:

• Documentation - http://www.agilent.com/find/pna

• Network Analyzer Firmware - http://na.tm.agilent.com/pna/firmware/firmware.htm

• U3047AM12 Test Set Files - http://na.tm.agilent.com/multiport (see test set files)
