Cable length factor
Add the following cable length factor Ac to the measurement accuracy when the cable
length is set to 1 m (for 16048A) or 2 m (for 16048D) in CABLE field, after performing the
cable correction and the OPEN/SHORT correction. When the cable length is 0 m, Ac is 0
percent.

where:
fm = Test frequency in [MHz]

Kl = Test cable length in [m]
Temperature factor
Multiply the sum of the basic accuracy and the cable length factor by the following
temperature induced error Kt, when the temperature range is 0 °C to 55 °C. The
boundary belongs to the smaller multiplier.
