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 gives 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 displays.
2. Select the ports to be tested and click TEST SELECTED PORT. The approximate distance
to the cable fault is displayed.
Note: The distance to the cable fault can be up to +/- 5 meters from the
actual fault.
