Figure 4-5 shows an example of a typical DTF return loss trace.
Figure 4-5. Typical DTF Return Loss Trace
In the above example:
Marker M1 marks the first connector, the end of the Site Master phase stable Test Port Extension cable. (M1 = 38.42 dB, 3.2 ft.)
Marker M2 marks the first jumper cable. (M2 = 32.04 dB, 13.1 ft.)
Marker M3 marks the end of the main feeder cable. (M3 = 31.70 dB, 149.0 ft.)
Marker M4 is the load at the end of the entire transmission line. (M4 = 43.10 dB, 157.0 ft.)
