Connecting to the Network

The FrameScope 350 uses test probes to connect to the network you are testing. Follow these steps to connect your unit to the network:

1Select an appropriate Agilent test probe for your application:

Select a Channel SmartProbe for testing twisted pair using patch cords.

Select a Link SmartProbe for testing twisted pair at network outlets.

See also “Cable Testing Overview” on page 57.

2Plug the test probe into the SmartProbe port on the top of the FrameScope.

3Connect the cabling to the SmartProbe. If you are performing optical cable testing, connect both the input and output signals. If you are performing optical network testing, connect an optical-to-copper media converter to the SmartProbe.
