QUICKLAN 6055 2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION QUICKLAN 6055 is an easy cable tester for LAN cables with RJ45 connector of whatsoever category. It’s able to detect cable failures and check wirings in UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) and STP (Shielded – screened shielded Twisted Pair) cables. The instrument not only identifies wiring faults, such as open wires, shorted wires, miswires and split pairs, but also tests up to 8 different cables at one end thanks to eight different optional remote units (see § 7.4.2).

QUICKLAN 6055 5. MEASUREMENTS 5.1. CABLING TEST VERIFY The wire mapping of RJ45 LAN cables is tested in accordance with its defined cabling layout. To test a cable perform the below operation: 1. Select the type of cable UTP or STP under test (see § 4.1.3). 2. Connect the cable under test to the meter (see Fig. 1 – part 1) and to the remote unit by using if necessary through supplied patch cables 3.

QUICKLAN 6055 5.3. SPLIT PAIRS EXPLANATION NOTE A LAN cable contains 8 conductors, twisted two by two thus forming 4 pairs: 1-2, 3-6, 4-5, 7-8. The error “SPLIT PAIRS” consists in the exchange of two conductors belonging to different pairs. The pin to pin correspondence seems intact, but physically the conductors of two couples are split. Such interaction hardly affects (or even makes impossible) the exchange of data at high frequency/speed. Fig.
