SPLIT PAIRS EXPLANATION NOTE
A LAN cable contains 8 conductors, twisted two by two thus forming 4 pairs: 1-2, 3-6, 4-5,
7-8. The error “SPLIT PAIRS” consists in the exchange of two conductors belonging to
different pairs. The pin to pin correspondence seems intact, but physically the conductors
of two couples are split. Such interaction hardly affects (or even makes impossible) the
exchange of data at high frequency/speed.

CAUTION
The error condition “SPLIT PAIRS” is verified only when the cable mapping is
fully correct.
