Signal
If you selected a 1G or 100M optical Ethernet application, the
Signal category shows results associated with the SFP you
are using to connect to the circuit, and the current signal level.
Fault Type For each fault detected, displays one of
the following values:
– Normal indicates the HST did not
detect any faults on the link.
– Open indicates the HST detected
an incomplete path on the link for
the pair.
– Short indicates the HST detected a
short for the pair.
– Unknown indicates the HST
detected a fault, but can not deter-
mine the nature of the fault.
The distance detected faults (open or
short) is provided as the Dx to Fault
result.
Link Status Indicates whether the link is active or
inactive.
Power over Ethernet Indicates whether or not PoE service is
present on the link.

Result Description
NOTE:
If the speed detected on the line is 1G electrical, the MDI/
MDIX Status results are not applicable and therefore do not
appear in the Cable Status category.
