100M Optical
Ethernet terminate
application
When running a terminate application for a 100M optical
signal, events on the receiving SFP port (R/T 2) are analyzed,
but they have no affect on the signal transmitted by the HST
(the transmitted signal is generated independent of the
received signal). Analysis is restricted to the R/T 2 port.
Figure 3 illustrates the signal path when running a terminate
application for a 100M optical signal.
Monitor
applications
Before running a monitor application, in addition to selecting
the Monitor/Thru application for the signal you are testing, you
must specify Monitor as the test type (as opposed to the Thru
type). The HST then analyzes the received signal.

Electrical Ethernet
monitor
application
When monitoring electrical signals, the HST analyzes the
received signal on the R/T 1 RJ-45 port.
The HST does not pass the signal through to the transmitter,
as it does in when running an electrical Thru application (see
“10/100/1G Electrical Ethernet thru application” on page 15).
