Viewing transceiver information for copper transceivers
with VCT support
This feature provides the ability to view diagnostic monitoring information for copper transceivers with Virtual
Cable Test (VCT) support. The cable quality of the copper cables connected between transceivers can be
ascertained using the transceiver cable diagnostics. Results of the diagnostics are displayed with the appropriate
CLI show commands and with SNMP using the hpicfTransceiver MIB.
The J8177C 1000Base-T Mini-GBIC is supported.
