" Microphone Preamplifier Type 2669 is constructed such that it is extremely
resistant to external electromagnetic radiation. This is important when measuring
near such things as radar and radio transmitters (for example, mobile telephones).
An important prerequisite for acheiving this immunity is that connected instrumen-
tation also fulfil these requirements and that the preamplifier’s termination in the
measuring instrument is correctly constructed (see Fig.8.10). Brüel&Kjær equip-
ment which are designed for connection with

2669L and the supplied extension cable fulfil the requirements for immunity to
external electromagnetic radiation.
Note:
Brüel&Kjær equipment, typically those having the traditional Brüel&Kjær
microphone socket, do not fulfil these strict immunity reqirements.
