Cable Test
Description
This test verifies the integrity of a copper Ethernet cable
connected to the OneTouch AT 10G analyzer. Additionally,
optical power measurement is available when a fiber cable is used
with a DDM-capable SFP.
When you tap the AutoTest button , the analyzer attempts
to establish link. If the analyzer cannot establish link, it performs
cable test instead.
Copper Cable Test
Configuration and Capabilities
Connect an Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector. The other end
of the cable can be terminated (that is, connected to a network
device) or unterminated (not connected).
When the test is run, for each copper pair, the analyzer reports
the following:

Opens (if they are more than 2 meters from the far end),
and the distance to the open.
 Shorts, and the distance to the short.
 Splits (short to another pair), and the distance to the split.
