RP-TNC/f calibration 50 Ohm load ? - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Hi, I am trying to eliminate as many interconnections as possible to run SWR test of 2.4 GHz omnidirectional 'rubber-duck' WiFi antenna. I am using Agilent E5071B NA. Its port has N/f interface. Antenna has RP-TNC/f interface. My ideal situation would be to use just one N/m to RP-TNC/m adapter (I got one). I need to calibrate Network Analyzer with 50-Ohm Load, Short, Open with that adapter attached.

Does anybody know where can I get those calibration tools with RP-TNC/f interface? Do they exist? Is it possible to make them on my own?

Any ideas will be appreciated.
