Performing Copper Cable Tests
The Performing Copper Cable Tests contains fields for performing tests on copper cables. Cable
testing provides information about where errors occurred in the cable, the last time a cable test was
performed, and the type of cable error that occurred. The tests use Time Domain Reflectometry
(TDR) technology to test the quality and characteristics of a copper cable attached to a port. Cables
up to 120 meters long can be tested. Cables are tested when the ports are in the down state, with
the exception of the Approximated Cable Length test.
To test cables:
1. Click Switch > Monitor > Cable Test > Copper Cable. The Copper Cable Page opens:
Figure 5-90
The Copper Cable Page contains the following fields:
Interface – Specifies the port to which the cable is connected.
Test Result – Displays the cable test results. Possible values are:
No Cable – Indicates that a cable is not connected to the port.
Open Cable – Indicates that a cable is connected on only one side.
Short Cable – Indicates that a short has occurred in the cable.
