Propagation) of a cable, for use in certification testing. NVP is
expressed as a percentage of the speed of light. you must use a
sample of the cable at least 50 feet (15 meters) long. Longer
cable samples produce more accurate results.
To learn the NVP:
1

2
Connect the cable sample to the FrameScope. Do not connect the
DualRemote.
