Sweep of the cables
Sweep of the RFS
Sweep of the cables and the RFS together
All results will be entered in the fifth (Cable Loss) and seventh (RFS & Cable Loss) worksheets
of the I&C Closeout Tool, P/N 40-00217-00. The total of the insertion loss for the cables and the
RFS will be equal to the insertion loss of both parts swept together.
Equipment Required
Signal Generator - Agilent 8648C for 3 GHz / 8648D for 4 GHz, or suitable
alternative, tunable to the RFS center frequency
Spectrum Analyzer - Agilent E4402B, or equivalent
Signal Generator cable and Spectrum Analyzer cable – Gender can be changed using
a barrel connector
Male and Female barrel connectors for Signal Generator cable and Spectrum
Analyzer cable connections
Power/data test cable

Test Setup
When performing each type of sweep, the sweep has to be performed at certain frequency
intervals (Table K4). Perform the complete test at the first frequency. Go to the next frequency
and recalibrate the test setup. Perform the complete test again. Do the same for the third
frequency. Refer to Figure K2.
