For Gigabit Ethernet ports:
• Where the link partner is powered on with no errors and the link is up, this
command cannot detect the cable length.
• Where the link partner is powered on with errors, this command can detect
whether the error is open, short, or crosstalk. In this case this command can also
detect the distance of the error.
• Where the link partner is powered down with no errors and the link is down, this
command cannot detect the cable length.
• When the link partner is powered down with errors, this command can detect
whether the error is open, short, or crosstalk. In this case this command can also
detect the distance of the error.
• When there is no link partner with no errors and the link is up, this command can
detect the cable length.
• When there is no link partner with errors, this command can detect whether the
error is open, short, or crosstalk. In this case this command can also detect the
distance of the error.
The Cable length range that can be detected is as follows:
• Smaller than 50m (<50m)
• Between 50m and 80m (50m~80m)
• Between 80m and 100m (80m~100m)
• Greate than 100m (>100m)
The cable length deviation value is 5m, therefore if the cable length is lest than 5m,
No Cable may be displayed under the

This test will consume a low number of packets. Since this test is for
copper cable, the port with fiber cable will be skipped from the test.
