Balanced cable measurement
A balun transformer is required for measuring balanced cable because the instrument’s UNKNOWN
terminal is unbalanced. Refer to the next paragraph titled “Balanced device measurement” for
details of measurement method. Figure 5-34 shows measurement setup for balanced cable. Agilent
16314A balanced/unbalanced 4-terminal converter can be used to measure balanced cables from
100 Hz to 10 MHz using an auto balancing bridge instrument. For measurement using a network
analyzer, the 16315A, 16316A and 16317A are available. These converters have different characteristic impedance to allow impedance matching with DUT (cable) impedance of 50 Ω, 100 Ω and 600
Ω, respectively, as shown in Table 5-4.
