While high-performance test equipment has been used successfully in the laboratory for many years, the trend is moving toward remote testing, which means smaller, lightweight equipment that can be taken into the field. It is crucial that field equipment delivers results with the same quality as those generated in the laboratory environment. Therefore, signal integrity, durability, and long-term reliability of the instrument and its accessories are key factors in ensuring consistent, accurate, and repeatable measurements. Whether you are an instrument designer or a field engineer, you need to consider two components that can directly affect the overall performance of handheld instruments — EMI shielding and long-term cable reliability.
