Cables, connectors augment test applications

摘要

Interconnect technology has a key role to play in test-and-mea-surement applications, whether you need to make a few connections on a benchtop or many connections in an automated test system. Specifications you'll need to keep in mind when choosing interconnect components might include electrical parameters like insertion loss, passive-intermodulation distortion, and phase and amplitude stability as well as the capability to accommodate high-speed digital signals compliant with standards such as USB 3.0, Serial ATA, HDMI, DVI and DVI-1, RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet, QSFP, Twinax, and Infiniband.
