An apparatus for making contact between a T/R module and a test device, the apparatus including a mechanically guided contact-making unit having a plurality of contact elements for contacting the T/R module. A triplate line substrate is arranged is electrically connected to the T/R module, via which the RF signals can be passed to the test device. One or more register pins for defined alignment of the T/R module with respect to the contact-making unit and a fixing unit for mechanical fixing of the T/R module are provided. A shifting device has a plurality of inclined planes that convert a shifting movement of the shifting device to a movement of the contact-making unit toward the T/R module at right angles to the shifting direction. When the contact-making unit reaches a defined final position the contact is made with the T/R module via the contact elements in one process.
