For example, the following start and stop IDs could be
used for testing the cabling in two rooms where each
room has three cable drops:
Start ID: ROOM A DROP#1
Stop ID: ROOM B DROP#3
These IDs produce the following ID list:
ROOM A DROP#1
ROOM A DROP#2
ROOM A DROP#3
ROOM B DROP#1
ROOM B DROP#2
ROOM B DROP#3
The steps below guide you through creating a sequential
ID list for the following scenario:
• You will test 12 cables in two patch panels: cables 1
through 6 in panel A and cables 1 through 6 in panel
B.
• Both panels are located in telecommunications closet
A on the third floor of the building.
Your IDs will follow the ANSI/TIA/EIA-606-A standard for
horizontal links. See “About ANSI/TIA/EIA-606-A Cable
IDs” on page 2-24 for details.
