HP/Agilent 11906C 7-16 to 7-mm Adapter Kit, DC to 7.5 GHz

The Agilent 11906C adapter kit is available to provide connections between 7-16 connectors and 7 mm connectors. The female 7-16 connectors in these kits feature special retracted threads that do not compress the gasket when connecting to a general-purpose 7-16 connector. This allows the connectors to be properly mated with only 20 in-lbs (1.6 ft-lbs) of torque, instead of the usual 18.5 to 22 ft-lbs of torque, reducing the possibility of damaging the test ports of a network analyzer. Modern wireless communication systems require high-performance components offering low VSWR and low intermodulation distortion at high transmit power levels. To meet these needs, 7-16 connectors are becoming increasingly common in base station transmitters, amplifiers, duplexers, and other products. These connectors conform to IEC 169-4, DIN 47223, European standard EN 122190, and British standard BSEN 122190.
