Test example #3. Testing a 100 MB/s switch port for an un-
known problem at far end of the cable (not at the switch port).
This test uses the 10/100/1000 LAN TESTS section of the Main Unit
to test the speed and wiring of the connection.
Step 1: Turn ON tester.
Step 2. Make the connection:
Connect the switch outlet (at the
remote site) to the TVR1000’s Main Unit GREEN JACK (use the
straight thru RJ45 patch cable that is provided).
Step 3:
If a Data/Link and Speed/Duplex LED lights, presume the
switch and the cabling are good. The test is complete. Otherwise,
go to step 4.
Step 4: If no Data/Link LED and Speed/Duplex LEDs light: Plug the
Main Unit directly into the switch (without any wall cabling in

between) and test. You should see activity (a Data/Link LED) and a
Speed/Duplex LED. If you don't, the LAN device is faulty. If you do,
the cable is faulty.
Test example #4. TEST for Hub/Switch or PC at the far end of
a cable using the TVR1000’s Cable Test Jack (continuity test).
Note: This test uses the CABLE TESTS section of the Main Unit to
perform its tests. It is a quick way to determine the number of cable
pairs connected to the hub/switch or PC (e.g. if switch requires
four pairs and only two are connected). Use this test if no activity
has been detected by the Data/Link and Speed/Duplex tests. This
lack of activity may be caused by a misplaced or disconnected
patch cable or the installed cable may be faulty. The power may be
turned OFF as well. This connection test is so quick, it should be
used whenever there is a lack of activity. The connection test
