ACM6000T is an Automatic Calibration Module (ACM) designed for full one-port and two-port calibrations of vector network analyzers from Copper Mountain Technologies. It operates in the frequency range from 300 kHz to 6 GHz. For higher frequencies, the ACM8000T operates up to 8 GHz.</span>
<p style="\&quot;margin:">The ACM calibrates any CMT VNA in fully automatic mode through the built-in functions of the analyzer software. The ACM switches to the impedance states one by one in the process of calibration. The VNA calibration coefficients are calculated using the measured S-parameters of the ACM impedance states and the data stored in the ACM memory.</p>
<p style="\&quot;margin:"><strong style="\&quot;margin:">Advantages of Automatic Calibration</strong>&nbsp;<br />
The ACM calibration offers the following advantages over traditional mechanical SOLT calibration:</p>
<ul>
    <li style="\&quot;margin:">Reduced number of connections (for example, full two-port calibration requires only one connection of the ACM to a VNA instead of 7 connections of mechanical standards)</li>
    <li style="\&quot;margin:">Faster calibration procedure</li>
    <li style="\&quot;margin:">Reduced risk of human error</li>
    <li style="\&quot;margin:">Higher accuracy</li>
    <li style="\&quot;margin:">Reduced wear on test port connectors&nbsp;<br />
    <br />
    The ACM contains two RF connectors for connection to VNA test ports, Mini-USB control port, several different transmission and reflection impedance states and electronic changeover switches. ACM6000T has six reflection states (three for each port) and a Thru, and ACM8000T has ten reflection states (five for each port) and a Thru. The precise S-parameters of the calibration impedance states are stored in the ACM memory (factory characterization data).&nbsp;<br />
