Integrated Cable Test for Copper Cables

Use the Integrated Cable Test for Copper Cables page to perform tests on

copper cables. Cable testing provides information about where errors

occurred in the cable, the last time a cable test was performed, and the type of

cable error which occurred. The tests use Time Domain Reflectometry

(TDR) technology to test the quality and characteristics of a copper cable

attached to a port. Cables up to 120 meters long can be tested. Cables are

tested when the ports are in the down state, with the exception of the

Approximated Cable Length test.
To display the Integrated Cable Test for Copper Cables page, click System

DiagnosticsIntegrated Cable Test in the navigation panel.
