link. Therefore, the video stream must be active between the bridged endpoints before the test can
begin.
For detailed information on the video QoS test parameters and results, see Video QoS (Quality of
Service) on page 6-23.
4.7 Ethernet Cable Test
The Ethernet Cable Test evaluates low-level details about an Ethernet connection and the physical
cable characteristics. It includes TDR capabilities to determine the overall cable length, which may be
useful to detect a short or open on individual pairs.
Note that:
• Some prerequisite knowledge of TDR analysis and Ethernet cable wiring may be required to
understand the results of this test.
• This functionality is driven by native functionality of the onboard Ethernet interface, as an accessory
feature only. It does not involve a dedicated and/or precisely-calibrated test component. Therefore,
the results should be considered general in nature. Furthermore, Spirent firmware can initiate testing
and retrieve results only. It cannot alter the core functionality or accuracy.
4.7.1 Setup - Ethernet Cable Test
The test setup requires the desired physical port to analyze. Refer to the labeling near the 10/100/1G
ports to determine port numbering.
The test may be run on a cable with or without an active signal. With an active signal, the test can
produce a more comprehensive set of results.
Preliminary issue - Limited distribution only!
