Measurement Reference
dBu is a measure of voltage, and dBm is a measure of power.
For example, the HP8903 should be labeled dBu instead of dBm
because it is a voltage measurement. These two terms are often used
interchangeably even though they have different meanings.
Audio levels in dBu are marked as dBm on the HP8903.
dB Conversion Chart
0 dBV = 2.2 dBu
0 dBu = 0 dBm, assuming the load = 600 Ω

Printed Circuit Board Interconnecting Cable
This cable is provided with the standard test equipment and is used
to connect U1 circuit boards that have been removed from the case for
servicing. It is made from two custom Shure printed circuit boards, a four-
inch, 11-wire ribbon cable, and one male (Shure 170A07) and one
female (Shure 170A08) surface-mount connector. Note that the SMC
connectors face in opposite directions.
