2 Product description

2.1 Key features and key characteristics

The R&S RT‑Z1M high-impedance buffer amplifier is an accessory for oscilloscopes
that have only inputs with 50 Ω input impedance. It allows you to connect measure-
ment equipment requiring a 1 MΩ load impedance to such oscilloscopes.
The R&S RT‑Z1M is equipped with the Rohde & Schwarz probe interface to be con-
nected to Rohde & Schwarz oscilloscopes that are compatible with this interface. How-
ever, oscilloscopes that already support a 1 MΩ input impedance do not support the
buffer amplifier.
The Rohde & Schwarz probe interface at the buffer amplifier input allows you to con-
nect various probes, e.g. passive probes, current probes, and active probes with
Rohde & Schwarz probe interface.
The R&S RT‑Z1M provides an integrated R&S ProbeMeter, which is used for probes
without an own R&S ProbeMeter. Usually, these probes are passive probes.
