Test and measurement specialist Rohde & Schwarz, together with connector and cable assembly manufacturer Rosenberger have successfully demonstrated compliance testing for MultiGBASE-T1 supporting 2.5/5/10GBASE-T1 automotive Ethernet speeds, based on the OPEN Alliance TC9 working group test specification. This development enables vehicle manufacturers and component suppliers to have confidence in the performance of future, high-speed in-vehicle networks.

I have several traces with markers in one channel. When I query the result of marker 1 I always get the response of trace 1. How can I get the result of marker 1 for trace 2?

This application note describes how to configure a Rohde & Schwarz Network Analyzer to make spectral measurements directly on a device under test.
