If 90% of all problems in a network are on the Physical Layer, then it isn’t any surprise that cable testing has become quite important in the industry. And although it may sound simple to test a pair of cables for faults, actually troubleshooting wire maps, crosstalk, propagation delay, or insertion loss can be more than headache-worthy. And thus, understanding how to troubleshoot these problems saves time, yet also supplies good information to prevent common mistakes in the future. How to Avoid Crosstalk You’ll come to find that the most common mistakes are usually the simplest to avoid. For instance, crosstalk is very commonly created when connectors are not installed properly at both ends of the cable. Crosstalk is the effect we get when electromagnetic energy from one cable leaves an imprint on adjacent cables. (You’ll often see this referred to as “noise.”)This usually isn’t a problem, however, since we twist wires inside Ethernet cable to cancel out this effect. So how, t
