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, for example, double-shielded RF and LAN
cables.
●
Always terminate open cable ends.
●
Ensure that connected external devices comply with EMC regulations.
●
Do not use USB connecting cables exceeding 5
m.
Preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Electrostatic discharge is most likely to occur when you connect or disconnect a DUT.
►
NOTICE!
Risk of electrostatic discharge. Electrostatic discharge can damage the
electronic components of the product and the device under test (DUT).
Ground yourself to prevent electrostatic discharge damage:
a) Use a wrist strap and cord to connect yourself to ground.
b) Use a conductive floor mat and heel strap combination.
3.1.6
Connecting to power
The R&S NRX can be used with different AC power voltages and adapts itself auto-
matically to them. Adjusting the R&S NRX to a particular AC supply voltage is therefore
not required. Refer to the data sheet for the requirements of voltage and frequency.
For safety information, see
1. Plug the AC power cable into the AC power connector on the rear panel of the
product. Only use the AC power cable delivered with the product.
2. Plug the AC power cable into a power outlet with ground contact.
The required ratings are listed next to the AC power connector and in the data
sheet.
