Uncertainty Curves for Round-Trip Cable Loss Measurements (1-Port) Round-trip cable loss measurements are convenient for field personnel testing installed cable or waveguide runs. This one-port technique provides one-way data after twice traversing the cable. The following two sets of uncertainty curves, less than 6 GHz on the left and greater than 6 GHz on the right, present worst-case uncertainty by DUT Match (i.e., Log Mag) when using VNA Master for one-port cable loss measurements.
