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 data cables for connecting external devices. The length of
data cables must not exceed 3
m.
– Double-shielded USB cables. The length of passive USB cables must not
exceed 1
m.
– CAT5e LAN cables, e.g. RJ-45 with a length
≤
3
m.
