3.5 Considerations for test setup

Cable selection and electromagnetic interference (EMI)
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 LAN
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 devices.

3.6 Connecting to power

The R&S QAT provides an AC power connector on the rear panel.
You can use different AC power voltages. The R&S QAT adapts itself automatically.
Refer to the datasheet for the requirements of voltage and frequency.
For safety information, see
1. Plug the AC power cable into the AC power connector on the rear panel of the
product. Only use the AC power cable delivered with the product.
2. Plug the AC power cable into a power outlet with ground contact.
The required ratings are listed next to the AC power connector and in the data
sheet.
3. Install the remaining cables before switching on the product.
