Hi,

I’m working with a USRP N200 which has installed a RF daughterboard  
XCVR2450. I’ve read in the official webpage that the daughterboard has a  
‘typical’ power output of 100mW (20mW). The problem is that I want to  
plug the Tx port directly to an Spectrum Analyzer with a cable. The  
analyzer has a maximum input power of 30dBm and I would like to know if  
the maximum output could exceed that level and burn it.

Thanks in advance
