28、 a means for generating symmetrical signals shall be provided. If the generator is unbalanced, this may be performed by the use of a balun or 180 power splitter. The minimum requirements for this device are specified in Table 1. The attenuation of the balun shall be kept as low as possible because i

32、ion of a balun shall be mathematically deduced from 3 operational attenuation measurements with 3 baluns back-to-back 4.1.3 Extension cable requirements An extension cable is only required if the channel or link under test does not include a cable, which can be connected to the test set-up. Unscreen

33、ed extension cables shall be used for testing unscreened, balanced link or channels. Screened, balanced extension cables shall be used for testing screened, balanced cable assemblies. Unbalanced (coaxial) extension cables shall be used for testing unbalanced cable assemblies. The electrical transmis

34、sion performance including electromagnetic screening and unbalance attenuation of the extension cables shall be better or equal to the performance of the link or channel under test. The choice of the extension cable should assure the minimum insertion loss and reflection loss of the set-up possible.

35、 The extension cables shall have the same nominal characteristic impedance as the link or channel under test. Likewise the velocity of propagation of the extension cables shall correspond to the link or channel under test (same type of isolation e.g. foamed or solid). The insertion loss of a near en

36、d extension cable including mating connector, if applicable, shall be less than 2,0 dB up to the highest measurement frequency. The insertion loss of set-up validation cable shall be less than the insertion loss of any cable included in the link or channel under test. The extension cables, any matin

37、g connectors and the connection between extension cables and the mating connectors, if applicable, shall have a balance or screening or balance and screening as good as possible. To further enhance the measurement sensitivity the connection between the mating connector and the extension cable may be

38、 improved since it does not form part of the device under test. It is not allowed to improve any contact between the connecting hardware of the link or channel under test and the mating connector of the extension cable, if applicable. The measurement sensitivity shall be 6 dB better than the specifi

39、ed requirement limit for the link or channel under test. See 4.4.2.1 for determination of the measurement sensitivity. In case of doubt regarding the interoperability between any mating connector and the connecting hardware of the link or channel under test, it is recommended to use the mating conne

40、ctor specified or advised by the supplier of the connecting hardware of the link or channel under test. - 7 - EN 50289-1-15:2004 4.2 Test sample 4.2.0 General The test sample consists of the link or channel under test, and, in each end where it ends in a connecting hardware component, also an extens

41、ion cable equipped with or without a mating connector. In the near end any extension cable is used to connect the link or channel with the balun (if applied), network analyzer or signal generator. In the far end an extension cable may be used to apply end termination. The extension cable may also be

42、 used to adjust the entire length to 10 m including near end extension cable (for shorter links or channels). If the length of the link or channel under test is longer than 9 m a 1 m far end extension cable may be used for the termination. The sample therefore consists of one extension cable with ma

43、ting connector in the near end of the link or channel under test, if applicable, one extension cable with mating connector in the far end of the link or channel under test, if applicable, a number of connecting hardware contained in the link or channel under test, a number of cables contained in the

44、 link or channel under test 4.2.1 Length of extension cables The min. length of extension cables with mating connectors, if applicable, is different for near end (reflector plate end) and far end (termination end). A: Extension cable at reflector plate (near end) The length of the near end extension

45、 cable, if applicable, shall be 100 cm 10 cm. B: Extension cable in termination end (far end) The entire length of link or channel including any near and far end extension cables shall be 10 m 0,5 m or 1 m 0,5 m longer than link or channel including near end extension cable, whichever is the longest

46、. 4.2.2 Tested length The effective test length of each measurement is limited by the absorbing clamp and the ferrite tube, as shown in Figure 1. This length shall be 600 cm 10 cm. 4.2.3 Preparation of test sample The diameter of any extension cables must be selected to allow insertion in the bore o

47、f the absorbing clamp. When a special type of socket interface is specified for termination of the link or channel such interface shall be used in the mating connector in question. The bore of the absorbing clamp shall be larger than the diameter the cables of the measured parts of the link or chann

48、el under test. EN 50289-1-15:2004 - 8 - 4.2.3.1 Balanced cable assemblies Differential and common mode terminations are required for each unmeasured pair at the near end of the link or channel or any applied extension cable, see Figure 2. Differential and common mode terminations are required for ea

49、ch pair at the far end of the link or channel or any applied extension cable, see Figure 2. R 2 R 1 R 1 Signal pair Cable screenFigure 2 - Termination of link or channel or applied extension cable The values of the R 1resistors shall be one half the nominal characteristic impedance of the cable(s) of the link or channel. NOTE For 100 balanced cabling the common mode impedance will be equal to 25 when R 2 is short-circu
