Input Channel Characteristics
1. AC coupling occurs after 50 ohm termination
2. When ordered with optional rear terminals, the standard/baseband channel inputs are active on both the front and rear of the
3. Multiply value(s) by x10 for the 50 V range.
4. Stated specification assumes Noise Reject OFF. Noise Reject ON doubles the sensitivity.
5. Assumes sine wave.
