Abstract

An RF cable includes a connector housing having an RF signal output interface, a cable body having a first end portion connected to the connector housing and a second end portion comprising an RF signal input interface, an RF signal transmission path formed from the RF signal input interface through the cable body and the connector housing to the RF signal output interface, and a power measurement device integrated into the connector housing and configured to measure a power value of an RF signal transmitted through the RF signal transmission path. The RF cable further includes a measurement signal output interface, and a measurement signal transmission line connecting the power measurement device to the measurement signal output interface, the power measurement device being configured to output a measurement signal indicating the measured power value of the RF signal at the measurement signal output interface.
