Nb3Sn as a BCS superconductors with a superconducting critical temperature higher than that of niobium offers potential benefit in lower surface resistance at the same temperature and frequency for SRF cavities. A Nb3Sn vapor diffusion deposition system was built and commissioned at Jefferson Lab. As the part of the commissioning a single cell 1.5 GHz CEBAF-shaped cavity was coated in the built system. The cavity exhibited the superconducting transition at about 17.9 K. The low field quality factor was about 5x109 at 4 K and 7x109 at 2 K dropping with field to about 109 at both temperatures at about 8 MV/m.
