The cable diagnostics function provides UTP cable testing. Its function is to determine the UTP
cable status and can provide a very useful physical link troubleshooting tool.

the fault is and information about the fault.
To access the Cable Diagnostics screen, type 5 and press Enter. The Cable Diagnostics screen
(Figure 4-10) opens.
