Hell Duncan: - Would they use S1 when leakage testing our type of equipment? Your equipment is cord-connected equipment, not direct-plug-in equipment. Therefore, S1 is not used when testing leakage current from your equipment. - What is the definition of 'direct plug in' (it is

RE: RF testing question

Kevin: You are actually testing a signal-to-noise ratio. The desired signal is reduced until you get to a certain level of degradation (which is unique to the receiver you have chosen). You then use that level to determine the amount of undesired (interfering) signal. You apply that undesired

ETSI telecom acoustic power test (fan noise, etc...)

2001-05-07 Thread David Heald
Greetings everyone, I was wondering if anyone has already worked this out. The test under question measures the sound power level generated by fan trays or other noise producing structures in Central Office type telecom equipment. ETS 300 753 Acoustic noise test calls for the test to be

RE: AC Power Primer?

2001-05-07 Thread Peter Tarver
Not so. Most household appliances contain motors (excluding entertainment appliances). Motors (ac induction types; the most commonly used) are generally less efficient at lower voltages (largely by virtue of their increased I^2*R loss) and draw more current to perform the same amount of work or

RF testing question

2001-05-07 Thread Kevin Harris
Hello, I'm puzzled by a proposed RF link performance standard I have just reviewed that is calling for some immunity to inband interference signals. The proposed procedure to do this to is to place a system receiver in an anechoic room and then transmit to it. The transmitter signal strength is

One of the formulas for power is Voltage Squared/Resistance. So, in the case where the load is purely resistive (and doesn't change), a dramatic reduction in power can be obtained by reducing the voltage. Max Kelson Evans Sutherland -Original Message- From: Ravinder Ajmani

Another good buy is the HP-8562A. The HP-8562A design is over 15 years old, but it's still a good choice, with a lot of them on the market now. It goes up to 18 GHz, and then accepts external waveguide harmonic mixers (18-26 GHz, 26-40 GHz, 33-50 GHz, others that I forget now, but up to something

Re: Is 36-72VDC power supply input still valid?

2001-05-07 Thread Helmut . Hintz
The 72V upper limit is still needed also for the future. In Germany as well as in eastern European countries including Russia, the central battery in telecom centres is a 60V (nominal) battery. The uppper limit is 72 V (2,4V x 30). This situation will not change in the near future regards
