Cable Test
Cable Test
The cable test application is used to diagnose un-shielded twisted pairs
(UTP) cables (up to Category 6e/Class E).
Cable test can be performed everywhere in the network where an
electrical 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet interface is available for testing. Only
the pairs used by the Ethernet signal will be tested. For 10 Base-T, and
100 Base-TX, pair 2 and 3 will be tested; for 1000 Base-T, all pairs will be
tested. However, if the Ethernet signal is unknown, all four pairs will be
tested.
Even if a link up is not required when testing with a far end equipment, it is
preferable to have the far end equipment powered up to maximize the
cable test results.
Supported Ethernet cable categories are: Category 3/Class C, Category 4,
Category 5, Category 5e/Class D, and Category 6e/Class E.
Note: Cable test result is reliable for cable length of 10 meters to 120 meters
(32.81 feet to 393.7 feet).
