4.4 Considerations for Test Setup
Cable selection and electromagnetic interference (EMI)
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can affect the measurement results.
To suppress electromagnetic radiation during operation:
●
Use high-quality shielded cables, especially for connecting the following:
– RF/marker/trigger/reference inputs and outputs: Use cables with at least
80 dB to 1 GHz shielding, usually achieved by double-shielded cables.
– USB interfaces: Use double-shielded cables no longer than 1 m. Use only
USB devices that remain within the permissible EMI limits.
– USB device port: Use double-shielded cables no longer than 5 m.
– Display port interface: Only use peripheral equipment that does not cause
limit violations.
– DVI interface: Use a cable shielded with ferrite cores.
– LAN interface: Use category
7 cables.
●
Always terminate open cable ends.
●
Ensure that connected external devices comply with EMC regulations.
