Since this cable is 4.5 meters, it must be paired with a 0.5-meter probe. Pairing it with a 1.0-meter probe would create a 5.5-meter mismatch, causing significant calibration errors in the Proximitor output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ2: What is the benefit of the \"ETR\" version over the standard 3300 XL cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA2: The ETR (Extended Temperature Range) version uses specialized dielectric materials that withstand up to 260°C.
