- 1 When the power of analyzer is turned off, port A&B are through connected.
- 2 Except for some specific situations, 1000BASE-T high-traffic lines of two channels can be recorded in the capture memory simultaneously without packet loss.
- 3 Cannot be used to measure PoE line where the current exceeding 720mA flows continuously for 3 seconds.
- 4 All frames may not be recorded in the storage because of the high traffice line or low performance of the external storage.
- 5 For LE-8500XR only. For PC connection.
- 6 According to our test conditions assuming a normal usage situation.
