Connecting to the Management Port
Use the Management port to manage the analyzer out of band when it is connected to a different network
(outside the network under test broadcast domain). In the event that you are unable to communicate with
the analyzer through the Network 10/100/1000 or 1000BASE-X (fiber) ports, you can use the Management
Port to gain access to the analyzer.
The Management Port is not a measurement interface. The Management Port facilitates remote control. Test
functions such as traffic generation, cable testing and active discovery only apply to the Network 10/100/1000
or 1000BASE-X ports
.
The Management Port can be used to view traffic discovered on the Network 10/100/
1000 or 1000BASE-X fiber ports.
The Management Port is also used to flash new software into the analyzer.
Note:
Analyzer software updates can only be done through the Management Port.
Changing the SFP Fiber Adapter
To install a SFP Fiber adapter, remove the protect cap and simply slide the adapter into the fiber port (labeled
1000BASE-X) until it clicks.
To remove a SFP Fiber adapter, press and hold the tabs on the sides of the SFP adapter and pull gently out of
the fiber port.

Warning
SFP fiber adapters are Class 1 laser light-emitting products. Avoid staring into the SFP
module while the analyzer is on; otherwise injury to the eyes may occur.
Note
It is recommended that the analyzer be powered off prior to changing the SFP fiber
adapter. This will reduce the possibility of damage to the SFP fiber adapter.
