Cable Diagnostics
– 1018 –
◆
This cable test is only accurate for Gigabit Ethernet cables 7 - 100
meters long.
◆
The test takes approximately 5 seconds. The switch displays the results
of the test immediately upon completion, including common cable
failures, as well as the status and approximate length of each cable
pair.
◆
Potential conditions which may be listed by the diagnostics include:
■
OK: Correctly terminated pair
■
Open: Open pair, no link partner
■
Short: Shorted pair
■
Not Supported: This message is displayed for Gigabit Ethernet ports
linked up at a speed lower than 1000 Mbps.
■
Impedance mismatch: Terminating impedance is not in the
reference range.
◆
Ports are linked down while running cable diagnostics.
◆
To ensure more accurate measurement of the length to a fault, first
disable power-saving mode (using the no power-save command) on the
link partner before running cable diagnostics.
