    3. If your test setup has a DC component at the RF input, insert a DC blocker. 4. Align the connector of the cable with the "RF In" connector of the R&S SZM. 5. Carefully join the connectors so the pin of the device connector fits in the socket of the cable connector.
  • Page 21: Completing The Test Setup

    Completing the test setup The frequency multiplier R&S SZM operates properly only when connected to a signal generator that meets the requirements of the R&S SZM in terms of input power and input frequency range, e.g. a R&S SMA100B. The R&S SMA100B offers the advantage of controlling the R&S SZM via USB.
