Installing the Semi-Rigid
SMA Connector Cables
80A03 TekConnect Probe Interface Module Instruction Manual
To provide a signal path between the sampling module and the TekConnect
Probe Interface Module, perform the following tasks:
1. Connect your wrist strap to the antistatic connector on the front of the
mainframe.
2. Use the two semi-rigid SMA cables (included with this product) to connect
the TekConnect Probe Interface Module to the sampling module as shown in
Figure 5. You may need to bend the SMA cables slightly to obtain proper
alignment to mate the SMA connectors.
NOTE. Always use a calibrated torque wrench to install adapters, attenuators,
cables, or power sensors in any setup. Torque all connections to 8 ±0.3 inch
pounds. For information on proper installation and torquing techniques, refer to
your module user manual.

CAUTION. The semi-rigid SMA connector cables used on the 80A03 TekConnect
Probe Interface Module are not compatible with the input connections of
80E01and 80E06 sampling modules.
Do not attempt to force a connection between the semi-rigid connector cables on
the TekConnect Probe Interface Module and these sampling modules. Use the
proper adapter or damage to the module will occur. See page 2 for additional
information.
