Agilent 8495D/K Attenuators Operating and Service Manual 27
Mating Connectors
The APC 3.5 connector is a 3.5- mm air line connector that will
mate with the SMA type connectors. The SWR performance of this
hybrid connection is similar to a mated pair of SMA connectors
when used within the frequency range of the SMA connector.
Option
The attenuators are configured with the APC 3.5 female connectors
and are designated as Option 004.
Installation Instructions
The 8495K solenoid drive cable connector plug is connected by
aligning the plug (P1) with the jack (J1) on the attenuator, and
then pushing the plug over the jack. The plug is removed by
grasping the ribbed sides of the plug and squeezing them together
while pulling back until the plug clears the jack.
CAUTION
When installing the instrument, make sure that the connectors do not support
weight or bear torque. The preferred procedure is to set up all equipment in
position before connecting the instrument. Either connector may be used as
the input or output connector.
