R&S NRT-Z14/44
● Class A equipment is intended for use in industrial environments. It can cause
radio disturbances in residential environments due to possible conducted and
radiated disturbances. It is therefore not suitable for class B environments.
If class A equipment causes radio disturbances, take appropriate measures to
eliminate them.

Considerations for test setup

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) can affect the measurement results.
To suppress electromagnetic radiation during operation:
● Use high-quality shielded cables, for example, double-shielded RF and inter-
face cables.
● Always terminate open cable ends.
● Ensure that connected external devices comply with EMC regulations.
Signal input and output levels
Information on signal levels is provided in the data sheet. Keep the signal levels
within the specified ranges to avoid damage to the product and connected devi-
ces.
Information on power handling capacity is given also on the back of the power
sensor. A derating diagram shows the power handling capacity of the power sen-
sor maximum forward power versus frequency, under different conditions such as
temperature and VSWR of the load.
