BNC connectors with integrated caps to ground

2003-03-19 Thread Summers, Chet

Thanks for the replies on my inquiry.  Apparently there is no such BNC
connector made, at least not yet, that crimps on the cable end.  Panel or
board mount is all that is available.

Chet,

It is the panel-mount connector (board-mounted) connector that contains the
capacitor.  You can recognize these connectors by the metallic prongs that
contact the inside surface of the panel when the connector is shoved through
the panel.  They are very common and can be found in most electronics
catalogs.  I will look for a specific part, but maybe not today.

Subject:BNC connectors with integrated caps to ground


Hello group,

almost two weeks back there was a post discussion regarding grounding
practices of Ethernet cables.  Out of this discussion came a recommendation
to use BNC connectors with integrated capacitors to ground.  I am assuming
the cable connector, not the panel mount connector, contains the caps.  Can
you recommend some tried and true manufacturers and preferred part numbers
of these components?  I'm looking for cable connected BNCs to fit RG58/59
and 174 coax.   

thank you,

RE: antenna port conducted emissions

Subject: antenna port conducted emissions



Folks,

I am interested in your opinions regarding antenna port 
conducted emissions
(MIL-STD-461D CE106) on a spread spectrum/frequency hopping device.

Is it practical to automatically measure (using a swept scan 
EMI receiver)
emissions from such a device?  I would think that when using 
spread spectrum
and a swept scan receiver, the receiver has some large probability of
missing the emissions caused by a particular harmonic when using swept
scanning systems.

The limit for CE106 (transmitters) is derived from the power of the
fundamental (there is no fundamental, only a band of 
operation), how do you
measure that power on the EMI receiver?

Does anyone have any experience/advice they would be willing 
to part with?

Thanks
Aaron Low

ps.  I am relatively new to this field, so my question may 
seem very basic
to many of you; please excuse me.




Aaron:

First question is are you sure you should be working to 461D? 461E came out
20 August 1999.

Now, to address your technical situation. Yes, you do have a fundamental.
Just because it's hopping doesn't mean it's not there. Granted, 461 CE06
(later CE106) originated in the era of non-hopping systems, and may address
them better in a future revision, but it does say that your reference will
be the peak power level of the fundamental.

You can measure the peak power by using a spectrum analyzer in peak hold,
using sufficient bandwidth to ensure the detector actually charges to the
peak during the time that the fundament dwells in the SA resolution
bandwidth. Sometimes you can sweep a small portion of spectrum, or you can
go to zero span width and just sit at some frequency waiting for the
fundamental to hop there.

You may find that the fundamental amplitude varies across the hopping range,
so you might need to disable the hopping and fix the fundamental to one or
more specific frequencies. Remember when looking for harmonic content, the
hop sizes will be n x the fundamental hop size.

Probabability of intercept is a problem, and I usually scan very slowly and
do several overlaid sweeps of the spectrum. Many of the transmitters that I
see have a short duty cycle (like 7 uS on and 993 uS in standby), so this
makes the signal acquisition even more challenging. Sometimes I set
automated scans to run 16 hours overnight, or over a weekend.

Ed

Re: Importing Bluetooth product into Egypt and Saudi Arabia

2003-03-19 Thread SIEMIC PSTC
Kurt, 


Currently there is no regulation on Bluetooth enabled devices for Egypt. 


For Saudi Arabia, both local representative and in-country testing are
required, the turn-around time is about 6 to 12 weeks, as for the cost,
contact me off line if you are interested. 


Hope this helps. 


Jeff

Hello colleagues,

I was wondering if anyone has any information on importing a Bluetooth
portable product into Egypt and Saudi Arabia.

Bluetooth is low-powered (less than +4 dBm)wireless technology. The device
operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band and uses FHSS technology. The product would
already be approved to FCC and EU/ETSI test requirements.

The info needed is:
1. What is the process? (how long in time? cost in dollars?)
2. Is in-country testing required?
3. Must there be a local agent?

Thank you in advance for any information that you can provide.

Regards to all,
Kurt
