            Abstract : 
Manufacturers are increasingly offering Ethernet connectivity on their test instruments. An additional benefit of this connection method is the ease of conversion to wireless connectivity. This paper describes the Ethernet interface used in the remote control of a RF power amplifier and describes the conversion to wireless connection.
