The Cable Diagnostics page contains fields for performing tests on copper cables. These functions have the ability to
identify the cable length and operating conditions, and to isolate a variety of common faults that can occur on the Cat5
twisted-pair cabling. There might be two statuses as follow:
If the link is established on the twisted-pair interface in 1000BASE-T mode, the Cable Diagnostics can run without
disruption of the link or of any data transfer.
If the link is established in 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T, the Cable Diagnostics cause the link to drop while the
diagnostics are running.
After the diagnostics are finished, the link is reestablished. And the following functions are available.
