rb4011 and cable check

Tue Apr 04, 2023 8:39 am

Hello,
There is a way to check a cable with uplink active?
I have a device that negotiation 100m but is gigabit.
I think is cable, but i'm not on customer site.
So i can remotely access ti rb4011 and see port is running but 100m (not 1gb).
I try ti click cable check but tell me link Is active (no lenght no open circuit).

If not i plan to go onsite

Thank you

The cable tester only works with the cable disconnected.
If the link works, the cable cannot be tested. Only with a special tester. Check whether the auto-negotiation or manual is set.
Do not forget to turn on the safe mode when working remotely.
