The 8584A1 is a female BNC 75Ω fixed offset short circuit termination used for vector network analyzer calibration, with a frequency range of DC to 18.0 GHz, a reflection coefficient of 0.98, an offset length of 0.3937 inches, and a phase accuracy of ±2.0°.
Fixed flush and fixed offset short circuit terminations (shorts) are used to establish reference planes in transmission systems and as key elements in the calibration of vector network analyzers (VNAs). Offset shorts can be used for banded calibrations of VNA. Those with the longest offset are often used to evaluate the calibration effectiveness of a VNA by measuring the effective source match after calibration.
