cable testing information is specified in the ANSI/TIA/EIA-TSB-67
standard. Additionally, cables must also pass test parameters for
Return Loss and Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT). These
tests are specified in the ANSI/TIA/EIA-TSB-95 Bulletin, “The
Additional Transmission Performance Guidelines for 100 Ohm
4-Pair Category 5 Cabling.”
Note that when testing your cable installation, be sure to include
all patch cables between switches and end devices.
Adjusting Existing Category 5 Cabling
If your existing Category 5 installation does not meet one of the
test parameters for 1000BASE-T, there are basically three measures
that can be applied to try to correct the problem:
1. Replace any Category 5 patch cables with high-performance
Category 5e cables.
2. Reduce the number of connectors used in the link.
3. Reconnect some of the connectors in the link.
