Cable Performance Setup
The Cable Performance Setup screen controls the test time and
the pass/fail threshold for the bit error rate tests. There are four
different bit error rate tests that can be run on SIGNALTEK.
? Cable Performance – This is the standard test that complies
with the IEEE 802.3 specification for Gigabit Ethernet links.
There are selections for 802.3 and Custom. The default 802.3
test runs for 10 seconds and allows no packet errors. The
custom selection can be used to change the test time to run up
to 24 hours with a user defined number of packet errors
allowed.
? VoIP – This test transmits small 64kB packet that represents
the type of information used in Voice over IP telephone
systems. VoIP utilizes small packets that place an emphasis
on latency (short delay) rather than packet size to maintain
acceptable voice quality. The default value is 10 seconds but
can be changed to any desired value.
? Web Performance – Simulates the type of large packet sizes
that are typical of internet data transfers where large amounts
of data are transferred.
? IP Video – Creates small random packets that are typical of IP
Video systems such as those used for IP security cameras.
Of each of these tests, Cable Performance is the most critical and
complies with the IEEE 802.3 specification for Gigabit Ethernet
transmissions. The other tests can be optionally selected to create
a more thorough test suite.
