Bala,

For (b) you would need to make sure the host is still exercising the
port the DUT was plugged in to (and doing so in the same manner).
Otherwise you might fool yourself into thinking the problem is the DUT.

Sometimes a particular host and DUT combined are way over the limit but
pass when attached to other (similar) devices.  It can be tricky.

Regards,
Rob

At each frequency where the emission is more than the limit or close to
the
limit

a. Measure the emission with the DUT in full functional mode.
b. Now remove the DUT (in your case the USB encryption key) and measure
the
emission.

If emission at (a) and (b) are same then DUT is not the cause, else DUT
is
the cause. Can't  we conclude this way. Finding a quite laptop or hub
seem
to be almost impossible.
