Autotest on Coaxial Cable

The following tests are run during an Autotest on coaxial cable:

∙Impedance

∙Resistance

∙Length

∙Anomaly detection (Results shown only if anomalies are detected.)

To run an Autotest on coaxial cable, refer to Figure 2-3 and proceed as follows:

1.Turn off any PC nodes connected to the cable you are testing.

2.If you want the Autotest to report cable length, remove the terminator from the far end of the cable.

3.Turn the rotary switch to AUTOTEST.

4.Verify that the test standard and cable type displayed are correct. You can change these settings in the SETUP mode.

5.Remove any cable connected to the test tool’s unused RJ45 connector.

6.Remove the terminator from the near end of the coaxial cable and connect the cable to the BNC connector on the test tool. On Model DSP-2000, use the RJ45 to BNC adapter to connect the cable to the CABLE TEST jack.

7.Press T to start the Autotest.
