These ABCD parameters agree with those listed in the last entry
of Table 4.1.
Properties of ABCD parameters
As shown on pp. 185-186 of the text, the ABCD parameters can
be expressed in terms of the Z parameters. (Actually, there are
interrelationships between all the network parameters, which are
conveniently listed in Table 4.2 on p. 187.)

From this relationship, we can show that for a reciprocal

If the network is lossless, there are no really outstanding features
of the ABCD matrix. Rather, using the relationship to the Z
parameters we can see that if the network is lossless, then

In other words, the diagonal elements are real while the off-
diagonal elements are imaginary for an ABCD matrix
representation of a lossless network.
