40、facilitate measurements in different frequency ranges with commercially available baluns as appropriate. The baluns may be balun transformers or 180 hybrids with attenuators to improve matching if needed (see Figure 1). BS EN 50289-1-1:2017 EN 50289-1-1:2017 7 Figure 1 180 hybrid used as a balun Bal
41、uns shall be RFI shielded and shall comply with the requirements given in Table 1. Depending on the frequency range different requirements are specified. For frequencies higher than 1 GHz balunless measurement technique is recommended (see clause 7.3). Generally, it is advantageous to choose a balun
42、 with the same common mode impedance as the cable under test. However, in practice this is hardly possible as it is unreasonable to provide separate measurements equipment for each cable type. Often the best performance for differential mode is achieved when the centre tap of the secondary winding o
43、f the balun is grounded; meaning the nominal common mode impedance is 25 . Then the results can directly be compared to results achieved by balunless measurement technique when 50 ports are used without mathematical impedance transformation of the latter results. In case of balance measurement where
44、 the centre tap of the secondary winding of the balun cannot be grounded, compare balance measurement results achieved with balun-based measurement technique to results achieved with balunless measurements technique the procedures described in EN 50289-1-9 shall be considered. Unless otherwise speci
45、fied the rules specifying the common mode termination for balance measurements according to EN 50289-1-9 shall be applied in case of doubt. The reference common mode impedance specified accordingly may be different to the reference common mode impedance of the cabling system the cable is intended to
46、 be used for.
