The CBL 2 comes packaged with the following components and sensors:
  • The CBL 2 unit. A handheld, portable, data collection device, attaches to a graphing calculator by way of a 6 inch link cable.
  • A six inch link cable which attaches the CBL 2 unit to the calculator.
  • The CBL 2 "cradle" device allows the user to attach the CBL 2 unit to the calculator (not included with the CBL 2) forming a single, more portable unit.
