To Set Up the Interface Pod
To Insert the Interface Pod
You can insert and remove interface pods at any time, even when the analyzer is powered on. Initially, you insert an interface pod when you set up the analyzer. Subsequently, you insert an interface pod when you change the physical layer interface that you want to monitor.

2Insert the interface pod into Port 1 or Port 2 of the analyzer.
| 3 Push the interface pod firmly into the analyzer until the connector at |
| the rear is properly seated. The clip on the base of the interface pod |
| clicks into place when the interface pod is fully inserted. |
Caution | You must always have two interface pods inserted in the the HP E5200A |
| Broadband Service Analyzer while it is operating. If your operations |
| require only a single interface pod, insert the blank interface pod |
| (provided with the analyzer) into the other port. The two interface pods |
| are necessary to maintain a balanced airflow for cooling of internal |
| components and to comply with EMC standards. |
