Identifying Cable Faults
One of the basic measurement tasks for the R&S Cable Rider ZPH is to find cable
faults with the distance-to-fault (DTF) measurement.
Test setup
The test setup requires an R&S Cable Rider ZPH, an RF cable (for example R&S FSH-
Z320, order number 1309.6600.00) and a calibration standard (for example R&S FSH-
Z28/Z29, order number 1300.7810.03 / 1300.7610.03 or R&S ZN-Z103 order number
3586.9392.00)).
1 = RF input (port 1)
2 = RF cable
3 = Calibration standard
4 = Test cable (DUT)
► Connect the RF test cable to the RF input of the R&S Cable Rider ZPH.
You should use the RF cable. Otherwise, measurement results may be invalid.
Starting the measurement
1. Press the [MODE] key.
2. Select the "Cable & Antenna" softkey.
