Transmission and Reflection Ports
The Transmission and Reflection Ports are female 3.5 mm 50 Ω connectors. A 50 Ω cable
connects directly to the Port 1/Port 2 or Reflection/Transmission port of the network
analyzer using the cable (08720-20245) that was shipped with your Test Set.
CAUTION Refer to your analyzer documentation for damage limits to the RF OUT port.
Verify that your test setup will not cause those limits to be exceeded.
Ground Connector
The Ground connector provides a convenient front panel ground connection for a standard
banana plug.
Port Connection Status LCD
The Port Connection Status LCD provides visual feedback of which port(s) are connected to
the Transmission and Reflection ports of the test set. When the LCD displays a path
connection, all other corresponding test ports are internally terminated in 50 Ω.
