Features:

• ***This option is not compatible with all models in the FSH series***
• This can be used with the following: FSH4.24, FSH8.28, FSH13.23, FSH20.30
• Distance to fault measurement option
• For FSH spectrum analyzers
• Provides functionality to measure cables and waveguides for mechanical defects in the system that cause a deterioration of the transmission quality
• Built-in threshold function ensures that only true cable faults, i.e. faults that exceed a tolerance limit, are listed, considerably simplifying measurement evaluation
• FSH-Z320 or FSH-Z321, and FSH-Z28 or FSH-Z29 are recommended

Equipped with firmware option R&S FSH-K41, you can perform distance-to-fault measurements with your R&S FSH.

Please note, this option is not compatible with all models in the FSH series. It can be used with the following: FSH4.24, FSH8.28, FSH13.23, FSH20.30.

The distance-to-fault (DTF) mode provides functionality to measure cables and waveguides for mechanical defects in the system that cause a deterioration of the transmission quality. The figure below shows some typical defects in a transmission system, including defects on the cable.

The distance-to-fault, caused by a pinched cable or by loose or corroded cable connections, is determined quickly and precisely. The built-in threshold function ensures that only true cable faults, i.e. faults that exceed a tolerance limit, are listed. This considerably simplifies measurement evaluation.
