Verifying Insertion Loss
1.
Connect test equipment as
shown.
2.
Observe and note the level in
dBm as shown on the millivolt-
meter.
3.
Connect the duplexer cable as-
sembly and test equipment to the
duplexer as shown.
4.
Observe and note the level in
dBm as shown on the millivolt-
meter.
5.
Subtract the absolute number
noted in Step 2 from the number
noted in Step 4. The difference
should be less than 1.3 dB to
meet specification for Insertion
Loss.
6.
Repeat Steps 1 to 5 for Low-
Pass/High Notch cavities with the
following exceptions:
a)
Set Frequency Generator for
Rx or Tx frequency,
whichever is LOWER
b)
Connect Signal Generator to
Low Pass duplexer input
(cavity #1)
c)
Connect terminator to cavity
#6.
