N2640A Datasheet, PDF (3/8 Pages) Agilent(Hewlett-Packard) – Technical Data, Software Release 3.0

N2644A Series Category 6A Universal Channel and Permanent Link SmartProbes,
Class F ^[2] Channel and Permanent Link SmartProbes
Universal Channel and Permanent Link
SmartProbes enable the WireScope
Pro to certify LAN cables, permanent
links and channel adapters. Once
inserted in the module bay of the
WireScope Pro, both, SmartProbes and
instrument, are automatically set up
and ready to perform standards-based
cable certification tests.

[1] If not mentioned otherwise, specifications are according to ISO Level IV definition.
[2] The term “Category 7” has been widely used as a synonym of ISO/IEC Class F, yet it is not a TIA/EIA standardized term. Product labels and
documentation may contain either term. Future documents and labels will use the term “Class F”.
[3] Available only for DC coupled structured cabling.
