There is a HP Blocking capacitor, Model 10240B. It has BNC connections.
I have used it in series with regular cables going to a spectrum analyzer
to see the HF components on different surfaces. The component has
+/- 200V maximum DC tolerance.

cheers,
Ishfaqur Raza

You might want to try to use a DC blocking capacitor in series with the
probe.
This will protect your analyzer input and still provide you with the
information that you want - the noise spectrum.
