HP WireTest, Technical Data
HP WireTest is a unique service provided by Hewlett-Packard to test the
suitability of your existing twisted-pair cable for use with
HP EtherTwist. This service furnishes you with the information needed
to make the important decision to use your existing wiring for 10BASE-T
network. HP WireTest maximizes the value of your existing wiring
system!
From expertise gained in the development of technical measurement
and instrumentation devices, Hewlett-Packard has designed a
sophisticated new tool for the HP WireTest service. This electronic
instrument quickly verifies if your wire complies with IEEE 802.3 type
10BASE-T wiring specifications by performing continuity, signal
attenuation, crosstalk attenuation, and burst noise tests.
