When to Keep the AC Wire Map Test Off
 Turn off the AC wire map test when you do not do tests
through PoE devices. The test can increase the time taken for
an Autotest.
 Turn off the AC wire map test when you select TIA Cat 6 or 6A
or Class E or E
A
limits. The return loss test on PoE devices will
always fail with these limits because PoE devices are not
designed to operate with protocols above 1000BASE-T. To use
those limits on a link that has PoE, do not do tests through
the PoE device.
 Turn off the AC wire map test if the PoE device supplies power
on pairs 4,5 and 7,8. In those devices, the inputs and outputs
are fully isolated on those pairs. To do tests through those
devices, use a PoE test limit such as POE 2-Pair Cat 6 Perm.
Link. The PoE limits are in the Application group on the TEST
