Use an RF cable that matches the connector. See
To connect the RF cable with the connector
1.
NOTICE!
Excessive reverse power at the RF connector can damage the
instrument.
Make sure that the signal power is within the limits as given in the data sheet.
2.
NOTICE!
DC voltage at the RF connector can damage the instrument. Never
apply DC voltage to the RF input connectors.
Make sure that the values are within the DC limits given in the data sheet.
3. If your test setup has a DC component at the RF input, insert a DC blocker.
4. Align the connector of the cable with the "RF In" connector of the R&S
SZM.
5. Carefully join the connectors so the pin of the device connector fits in the
socket of the cable connector.
