To connect a DUT
1. If one or more control or supply cables are available for connecting the DUT, con-
nect them.
2. If an RF cable is available for connecting the DUT to your test equipment, connect
it.
Risk of RF connector and cable damage / torque recommendations
Excessive tightening of coaxial RF connectors can damage the cables and connectors.
Too weak tightening causes inaccurate measurement results.
Always use a torque wrench suitable for the connector type and apply the torque speci-
fied in
application note 1MA99
, which is available on the internet at
. It provides additional information on the care and handling of RF con-
nectors.
For RF connectors, we recommend applying the following torque limits:
