Tutorial: Preparing to Save Tests
The tutorial in this section guides you through setting up
the tester to save tests.
Step 1: Creating a List of Sequential Fiber IDs
This step assumes the following scenario:
•
You will be testing 12 cables in two patch panels: cables
1 through 6 in panel A and cables 1 through 6 in panel
B.
•
Both panels are located in telecommunications closet A
on the third floor of the building.
•
Your fiber IDs will follow the ANSI/TIA/EIA-606-A
standard for horizontal links. See "About ANSI/TIA/EIA-
606-A Fiber IDs" on page 2- 25 for details.
