1. Use an RF cable, that matches the connector.
See "Cable selection and electromagnetic interference (EMI)" on page 14.
2. NOTICE! Risk of connector damage and cable damage. Excessive tightening
can damage the cables and the connectors.
To connect the RF cable with the connector, proceed as follows:
a) Carefully align the connector of the cable along a common axis.
b) Mate the connectors along the common axis until the male pin of the inner
connector engages with the female socket of the outer connector.
c) When screwing the connectors, only turn the nut of the outer connector
until the connectors are firmly coupled.
d) Torque the nut to the specified limit using a calibrated torque wrench. Hold
the opposite connector part stationary with a spanner.
For applicable torque values, see chapter "Handling" of the application

FE50DTR within the range as
given in the data sheet.
4.9 Connecting the R&S FE50DTR
The R&S FE50DTR operates properly, only when connected to a vector signal
generator and/or a vector signal analyzer, e.g. R&S SMW/R&S FSV/A.
To connect the R&S FE50DTR
The R&S FE50DTR is off but connected to power.
Relevant connectors for connection are located on the rear panel of the
R&S
FE50DTR.
1. You can control the R&S FE50DTR via LAN connection between
R&S FE50DTR and the vector signal generator and/or the vector signal ana-
lyzer.
How to:
Chapter 4.7, "Connecting to LAN" , on page 16
2. Connect required SMA connectors.
How to: Chapter 4.8, "Connecting to SMA and 1.85 mm" , on page 17.
