Open Pairs Failure
Figure 3 shows a wire map of a cable test that fails because wires 4, 5, 7, and 8 are open. The
wires are not connected on the far end and the test limit is set to ≥1000BASE-T (1G) to verify a
4-pair cable. With a test limit set to 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX, the wire map of the cable test
passes. The length of the wires on the wire map indicates the distance to the open.
Figure 3. Open Pairs
Item Description
Pairs 1,2 fail because they are open.
Pairs 7,8 fail because they are a reverse pair.
The continuity of the shield fails because the continuity of the shield cannot be
verified.
Because the wire map failed, the Product cannot test the performance
capability of the cable.
