Single-ended active probes: contains small, active amplifier and enables the probe input capacitance to be very low resulting in high
input impedance on high frequencies. Least intrusive of all probes.

Active differential probes: use to look at signals that are referenced to each others instead of earth ground and to look at small signals in
the presence of large DC offsets or other common mode signals such as power line noise.

* Recommended is a suggestion from Agilent scope and probing experts that this probe works well with this scope.
Compatible indicates that the probe and scope will work together but that there are other choices that will work better.
Included means that this probe ships with this scope.
Incompatible is a warning that the probe will not work with the indicated scope.
** With the addition of 40-pin logic cable, the Agilent MSO accepts numerous logic analyzer accessories such as Mictor, Samtec, flying leads or soft touch connectorless probe.
