2-3 Connector Panels
The MS2090A Field Master Pro uses two connector panels to provide for all physical IO. These panels use a
variety of connector types intended for their purpose.
RF Connectors
The main RF input connector is Type N, Type K, or Type V, depending on the frequency option that is
installed. These are ruggedized 50 connectors. Type N connectors are female and Type K and V are male.
Additional IO is provided with the SMA style connectors. The SMA connectors are 50 female.
Top Connector Panel
Figure 2-2 shows the top connector panel on the MS2090A.
1. RF In Port: This is a 50 ruggedized connector of the following:
• Type N female with options 709, 714, and 720
• Type K male with options 726, 732, and 743
• Type V male with option 754
Maximum Input: ±50 VDC, +23 dBm, +13 dBm with Preamp On
To prevent damage to your instrument, do not try to mate incorrect connector types or use pliers or a plain
wrench to tighten the connector. Do not overtighten the connector. The recommended torque for Type K and V
is 8 lbf·in (0.9 N·m or 90 N·cm). The recommended torque for Type N is 12 lbf·in (1.35 N·m or 135 N·cm).
Note
Versions of the Field Master Pro that were manufactured before November 2021 featured SMB style
connectors, which are 50 Ω slip-on connectors. Port functionality is the same with either connector.
Caution
To prevent damage to your instrument, do not use pliers or a plain wrench to tighten the connectors.
Do not overtighten the connector. The recommended torque for Type K and V is 8 lbf·in (0.9 N·m or
90 N·cm). The recommended torque for Type N is 12 lbf·in (1.35 N·m or 135 N·cm).
