1
Frequency Range
Use this menu to set minimum and maximum certification
and cable grade frequencies.
2
Connector Pinout
This screen is used to define connector pinouts.
Note: If one wire pair is not selected, tests for NEXT,
attenuation, capacitance, DC resistance, and
impedance will not be performed on that pair.
3
Test Limits
This screen is used to customize Autotest pass/fail limits.
4
Link Models
Custom NEXT and Attenuation limits are set by using a
flat line limit or one of several different models.
Frequency limits will vary from less than 1 to 350 MHz
for the LANTEK 6 and from 1 to 750 MHz for the
LANTEK 7 based on the link type.
For a detailed description of the methods and limits for
calculating NEXT and Attenuation values, refer to
Appendix C,
Measurement Methods and Limits.

Select Autotests
Not all cables will require the full suite of Autotests. Use
this menu to select the Autotests to be performed.
6
Adapters
Use this menu to indicate which near-end and far-end
cable adapters are currently being used.
