How the Freq/Loss pairs are applied
When the cable file contains one Freq/Loss pair, that correction value is applied
to the entire displayed frequency span.
When the cable file contains two or more Freq/Loss pairs, the Loss value that is
used is interpolated from the Freq/Loss pairs and the DTF center frequency. For
example, using a cable file with the following Freq/Loss pairs:
The center frequency for the measurement is determined from the calculated
(Stop – Start) frequency values (seen on the second page of DTF Settings):
The Loss value for the measurement is interpolated from the Freq/Loss pairs at
the Center Freq:
The correction for loss at 5 meters in one direction: 0.18 dB/m * 5m = 0.9 dB.
All DTF measurements correct for loss for travel down the DUT and back, so
double the correction: 0.9 dB * 2 = 1.8 dB.

Window settings provide the ability to choose between optimizing DTF
measurements for resolving closely-spaced faults or for the ability to measure
low-level faults.
