Typical Measurement Setups
This paragraph provides typical measurement setups using the 41800A. The
following setups are described.
• Network Measurement Setups
— Using one 41800A
— Using one 41800A with a transmission/reflection test set
— Using two 41800A
• Spectrum Measurement Setups
— Using the 41800A with an instrument which has a type-N input
connector
— Using the 41800A with an instrument which has a BNC input connector
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage the 41800A 's highly sensitive
input amplifier.
Never touch the probe pin!
Do not apply an ac+dc level which exceeds ±50 V (±200 V when using a
divider) to the probe.
Do not mate the output connector of the probe assembly (50
Ω
type-N
connector) to 75
Ω
type-N connectors or damage may result.
The 30 mil probe pin must be used to adapt to the Keysight probe-BNC(m)
adapter, the 10:1/100:1 dividers, the slip-on spanner ground tip, the hook
tip adapter, or the Keysight probe-N(m) adapter.
