Included with the antenna is high quality semi-flexible RF cable, this cable works as the handler of the
antenna.
The big advantage of this approach: you can
shape the cable the way you want for the
antenna to be located exactly where you need it,
in most cases with no need to hold it in your
hand.
Nevertheless, in many cases you need a quick
measurement done in a unique orientation or
location, just use the semi-rigid cable has the
holder of the antenna.
You can also connect this semi-rigid cable to any
external SMA Cable of any additional length to
couple it to a distant instrument.
Magnetic H-Loop antennas
There are three different magnetic antenna options: As the antenna diameter gets shorter, the spatial
resolution increases at the cost of some sensitivity loss at low frequencies, but best response at high
frequencies; you should select RFEAH-25 for best sensitivity with connectors, large ICs and isolated signal
traces, whereas RFEAH-5 works best for very narrow selective work in a populated PCB with close-by signal
traces. RFEAH-15 is a good in-between compromise.
