High bandwidth and measurement cabling.
Due to the high bandwidth measurement capabilities of the acquisition card, combined with
the high measurement sensitivity of the card, it is important to pay close attention to the
measurement cabling.
Some advice to prevent measuring unwanted disturbances:
● Keep measurement cables as short as possible in order to reduce the reception of
environmental disturbances.
● Use shielded cables. The cable should have the measurement cables paired
inside a shield. Preferably, the shield should be connected to the chassis of the
measurement Genesis High Speed equipment. Alternatively, the shield could also
be connected to the chassis of the object under test.
