Certifying Twisted Pair Cabling

Twisted Pair Autotest Results

Wire Map

Wire map results show the connections between the main

and remote testers. The tester checks the cable pairs

required by the selected test limit. If the wire map test fails,

you can continue or stop the Autotest. Figure 3-10 describes

examples of wire map screens. For information on AC wire

map screens, see Chapter 4.

Tip: The wire map test in Single Test mode features a

scanning function that runs the wire map test

continuously. This function is helpful for locating

intermittent wiring faults.
