English
When LAN Cable Is Functioning Normally...
If no cable problem is detected on the LAN cable connected to a Gigabit hub or a 10/100 Mbps hub,
the following message will appear:
Link Detected
Displays transmission speed
Cable Length
Displays the approximate length of the attached LAN cable.
Note: The Gigabit hub will only operate at a speed of 10/100Mbps in MS-DOS mode; it will operate
at a normal speed of 10/100/1000Mbps in Windows mode or when the LAN Boot ROM is activated.
When a Cable Problem Occurs...
If a cable problem occurs on a specified pair of wires, the
Status
field will show
Short
and the
length shown will be the approximate distance to the fault or short.
Example:
Pair1-2 Status = Short / Length
=
1.6m
Explanation: A fault or short might occur at about 1.6m on Pair 1-2.
Note: Pair 4-5 and Pair 7-8 are not used in a 10/100 Mbps environment, their
Status
fields will
show
Open
, and the length shown is the approximate length of the attached LAN cable
Start detecting at Port
.....
Link Detected --> 100Mbps
