CHAPTER 5: Interpreting Cable Test Results
The four classes of faults discussed next are
in order of severity (higher to lower). The
severity has to do with the ability of a more
severe error to mask less severe errors. For
example, if there is a short in the cable,
miswires and split pairs may not be
detected for the pairs involved in the short
fault.
S
HORT
The pair has a low-resistance connection
from one wire of the pair to the other wire
of the pair or to any other wire in the cable
or the shield. A short is indicated by the
SHORT icon being on and flashing S in
the appropriate pin positions on the
second line. See Figure 5-2.
