Definitions

General

Product data applies under the following conditions:

• Three hours storage at ambient temperature followed by 60 minutes warm-up operation

• Specified environmental conditions met

• Recommended calibration interval adhered to

• All internal automatic adjustments performed, if applicable

• Unless stated otherwise, specifications apply to test ports and a nominal source power of –10 dBm

Specifications with limits

Represent warranted product performance by means of a range of values for the specified parameter. These specifications are marked with limiting symbols such as <, ≤, >, ≥, ±, or descriptions such as maximum, limit of, minimum. Compliance is ensured by testing or is derived from the design. Test limits are narrowed by guard bands to take into account measurement uncertainties, drift and aging, if applicable.

Specifications without limits

Represent warranted product performance for the specified parameter. These specifications are not specially marked and represent values with no or negligible deviations from the given value (e.g. dimensions or resolution of a setting parameter). Compliance is ensured by design.

Typical data (typ .)

Characterizes product performance by means of representative information for the given parameter. When marked with <, > or as a range, it represents the performance met by approximately 80 % of the instruments at production time. Otherwise, it represents the mean value.

Nominal values (nom.)

Characterize product performance by means of a representative value for the given parameter (e.g. nominal impedance). In contrast to typical data, a statistical evaluation does not take place and the parameter is not tested during production.

Measured values (meas.)

Characterize expected product performance by means of measurement results gained from individual samples.

Uncertainties

Represent limits of measurement uncertainty for a given measurand. Uncertainty is defined with a coverage factor of 2 and has been calculated in line with the rules of the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM), taking into account environmental conditions, aging, wear and tear.

Device settings and GUI parameters are indicated as follows: “parameter: value”.

Typical data as well as nominal and measured values are not warranted by Rohde & Schwarz.

Specified and typical data given in this data sheet applies to the R&S®ZNB4, the R&S®ZNB8, the R&S®ZNB20 and the R&S®ZNB40; please note their

respective frequency ranges.

2

The dynamic range is defined as the difference between the actual maximum source power and the RMS value of the data trace of the transmission

magnitude, which is produced by noise and crosstalk with the test ports short-circuited. The specification applies at 10 Hz measurement bandwidth, without system error correction. The dynamic range can be increased by using a measurement bandwidth of 1 H z. Crosstalk does not limit the d ynamic range. Dynamic range between port 1 and port 2 and between port 3 and port 4 (4-port model). Otherwise the dynamic range performance is typical.

This data is valid between +18 °C and +28 °C, provided the temperature has not varied by more than 1 °C after calibration. Validity of the data is conditional on the use of an R&S specified below. Frequency points, measurement bandwidth and sweep time have to be identical for measurement and calibration (no interpolation allowed).
