Ambient temperature
The
R&S DDF205 should be used in an area where the ambient temperature
does not exceed –10 °C to +55 °C (DDF205 without front control panel) or
0 °C to 55 °C (DDF205 with front control panel), respectively. The
R&S DDF205 is fan-cooled and must be installed with sufficient space along
the sides to ensure a free flow of air. Make sure that there is sufficient space
for hot air to escape from the R&S DDF205. To ensure sufficient cooling do
not attach telescopic rails to the sides of the unit.

For use in vehicles, the R&S DDF205 can be powered directly from the vehicle's
battery via the DC input.
1.2.4 EMI Protective Measures
In order to avoid electromagnetic interference (EMI), the R&S DDF205
may only be
operated when it is closed and all shielding covers are in place. Use only appropriate
shielded signal and control cables with proper termination.
