58 Agilent FrameScope 350 User’s Manual
3 Cable Testing with the FrameScope 350
Cable Testing Overview
• The channel configuration provides a full end-to-end
performance certification, including the cable run as well as
the user’s patch cords at each end. The pass/fail limits for
channel performance testing are less stringent than for link
configurations to accommodate the performance
degradation inherent in the two additional modular
connections.
The FrameScope and DualRemote use different test probes for
link and channel tests. The link probes incorporate a short test
cord that connects to the outlets in the telecommunications
closet and user location. Channel probes feature a socket into
which you connect one end of the user patch cord. The other
end of the patch cord is connected to the outlet in the
telecommunications closet or user location. Figure 9 and
Figure 10 on page 59 show the link and channel test
connections.
