The port configurations are arranged in a scrollable list and selected with a mouse click. The resulting port
number assignment is shown on the left-hand side of the Balanced Ports and Port Groups dialog and in
the Port Configuration dialog. When a predefined port configuration is selected, all user-defined port
groups are removed.
Predefined Configurations
The number of type of predefined configurations depends on the port number of the analyzer.
The predefined configurations comprise the fully single-ended (unbalanced) case, where the logical ports
correspond to the physical ports, and all balanced configurations where two adjacent physical ports are
connected to a logical port. In addition configurations where one or more ports are excluded from the
measurement are provided (see Measured Ports).
Example: 4-port analyzer
Fully unbalanced: Physical ports no. 3, 1, 4, 2 connected to logical ports (DUT ports) 3, 1, 4, 2.
One balanced port:
a) Physical ports no. 3 and 1 connected to logical port 1, remaining ports unbalanced.
b) Physical ports no. 4 and 2 connected to logical port 2, remaining ports unbalanced.
Two balanced ports: Physical ports no. 3 and 1 connected to logical port 1, physical ports no. 4
and 2 connected to logical port 2.
In additional configurations one, two or three ports (marked as ) are excluded from the
measurement.
To define a non standard configuration or use different port impedances, select the Def. Balanced
Port tab.

Def. Balanced Port
The Def. Balanced Port tab of the Balanced Ports and Port Groups dialog defines new balanced port
configurations with their reference impedances.
