Cable Test
Power Class, available when PoE is enabled, selects the power class of
the simulated powered device:
Pass/Fail Verdict
Pass/Fail Verdict check box when selected (default) enables the cable
test pass/fail verdict and allows setting the threshold values.
Prop. Delay Threshold (ns) is the maximum time for a pulse to
reach the far end: 0 to 1000 ns (default is 1000 ns for 10 Mbit/s,
556 ns for 100 Mbit/s, and 570 ns for 1 Gbit/s).
Delay Skew Threshold (ns) is the maximum time between the
fastest and slowest pairs of a 1000 Base-T signal: 0 to 120 ns
(default is 50 ns).
Length Threshold (m) is the maximum acceptable cable length:
0 to 120 m (0 to 394 feet) (default is 100 m (328 ft)).
PoE Loaded Voltage Thresholds (V), available when the PoE
check box is selected, allows the configuration of the acceptable
voltage range when a load is applied: minimum value is either 37
(default) for Class 0 to 3 or 42.5 (default) for Class 4; maximum
value is 57 (default). A Pass vedict is declared when the measured
voltage is within the defined range.
