Agilent/Keysight 11902A

The Agilent/Keysight 11902A is a metrology-grade adapter that connects 2.4 mm male connectors to APC-7 connectors in RF and microwave measurement systems. Engineered for precision signal transmission, it maintains signal integrity across a broad frequency range with exceptional return loss performance. This adapter is built for high-accuracy laboratory and production test environments where connector repeatability and measurement confidence are critical.

– Technical Specifications

• Connector Type: 2.4 mm (male) to APC-7
• Frequency Range: DC to 18 GHz
• Return Loss: > 32 dB
• Electrical Length: 38.5 mm (1.51 in)
• Overall Length: 43.8 mm (1.73 in)
• Diameter: 22.0 mm (0.86 in)

– Key Features

The 11902A delivers return loss exceeding 32 dB across its full frequency range, ensuring minimal reflections and high measurement fidelity. Low electrical length of 38.5 mm reduces phase shift and parasitic effects in precision circuits. The compact 22.0 mm diameter accommodates dense test fixtures and probe stations without spatial constraints.

– Typical Applications

This adapter is suited for use in RF network analysis, impedance measurement, gain and S-parameter characterization, and calibration standards integration. Applications span microwave component testing, filter evaluation, and antenna characterization from DC through 18 GHz.

– Compatibility & Integration

The 11902A interfaces directly with equipment and components equipped with 2.4 mm male connectors and APC-7 ports. Its metrology-grade design integrates into calibrated test systems, allowing insertion into measurement paths where connector repeatability directly impacts uncertainty budgets.
