Cable Test
Some switch models have a cable testing feature that allows you to check for cable faults. If
a cable fault is found on a port the cable test will give an estimate of the distance of the fault
from the switch.
To perform a cable test:
1.
Click System > Monitoring > Cable Tester. The Cable Tester screen will display.
2.
Select the port(s) to be tested and click TEST SELECTED PORT. The approximate distance
to the cable fault will be displayed.
Note:
The distance to the cable fault can be up to +/- 5 meters from the
actual fault.
