Book Overview
This book documents the use of Option 100 (fault location and structural return loss
(SRL) measurement capability) with the following network analyzers:
• Agilent Technologies E5061A
• Agilent Technologies E5062A
Fault location and SRL measurements can help you test and troubleshoot 50 ohm or
75 ohm transmission lines. Both fault location and SRL measurements are used to
identify damaged cables.
Fault location is best used to identify single faults greater than −40 dB.
SRL measurements are typically made before a cable has been installed and are best
used to identify many small evenly-spaced imperfections that may be too small for a
fault location measurement to detect.
