An oscilloscope probe is an essential device for use with an oscilloscope when carrying out a range of tests and measurements of electrical devices. The two main types of oscilloscope probes are active and passive, both with varying bandwidths and are commonly used by electrical engineers.

The bandwidth of an oscilloscope specifies the usable frequency range of the oscilloscope. The signal processing circuitry of an oscilloscope acts like a low pass filter, limiting the frequency behaviour of the device. Therefore, for a proper analysis, the oscilloscope bandwidth must be considerably higher than the frequency of the signal under test.

The RS PRO RS-TP 6500R oscilloscope probe is a passive type probe that is ideal for general purpose troubleshooting and probing. As it is a passive probe it features no active parts meaning it does not need a power supply or battery to be operated.
