Patent ID: 8023416

Claim:
A device to test electromagnetic compatibility of at least one high speed Ethernet interface in at least one equipment under test onboard an aircraft, the device comprising: a module including a first end and a second end; a test cable less than 1 meter long, the test cable including two first ends and two second ends, the first ends of the test cable are connected to the first end of the module, the second ends of the test cable are fitted with two aircraft contacts connected to the at least one equipment under test including the Ethernet interface; two standard connectors situated at the second end of the module compatible with two emitters/receivers of a standard test equipment; a current injection device to inject current that simulates an electromagnetic aggression as part of the electromagnetic compatibility test; and means for simulating attenuation of the test cable by adjusting a resonance of the test cable as a function of a length of the aircraft, said resonance being greater than 80 MHz.
