Cable Fault Distance (meters)

Cable Length (meters) [in range]

The cable diagnostic feature is designed primarily for administrators or customer service representatives. It is used to test and verify copper cables; it can quickly determine the quality of the cables and the types of error.

Note:
1. If cable length displays "N/A" it means the cable length is "Not Available". This is due to the port being unable to obtain cable length; either because its link speed is 10M or 100M, or the cable is broken and/or in bad quality.

2. The deviation of "Cable Fault Distance" is +/- 2 meters. No cable may be displayed under Test Result when the cable is less than 2 meters in length.

3. The test also measures cable fault and identifies the fault in length according to the distance from this switch.
