6.0 Recommendation
To confirm the cable performance after installation of the splice the characteristic impedance
shall be tested as per MIL-PRF-32517. The specimen shall be prepared for testing by
assembling appropriate connections to the cable ends. The rise time of Time Domain
Reflectometer (TDR) shall be 150 picoseconds or less, and the vertical sensitivity of the system
shall provide for minimum resolution of one major scale division. The measurement shall be
taken by gating within 1 nanosecond on each side of the matched impedance splice.
The characteristic impedance shall not exceed the impedance limits shown in Table I.
