Description
The cable pairs relevant to the plot.
Frequency range in MHz of the NEXT test.
Margin is the difference between the limit and measured values plotted at the cursor’s position. Use LRto move the cursor left or right. If you move the cursor beyond the highest test frequency specified by the selected test standard, the readout shows the NEXT value at the cursor’s position.
The limits for NEXT, as defined by the selected test standard. A crosshair is shown if the limit is defined for only one frequency.
Decibels of crosstalk attenuation (NEXT) between the cable pairs.
The measured NEXT for the cable pairs.
