Abstract
A system, according to one embodiment, includes a first portion having a first interface configured for coupling to a cable and a second portion having a second interface configured for coupling to the cable. The first portion has circuitry configured to send a data testing signal through a data lead of the cable via the first interface, and circuitry configured to send a power signal through a power lead of the cable via the first interface. The second portion has circuitry configured to receive and analyze the data testing signal from the data lead of the cable via the second interface, and circuitry configured to receive and analyze the power signal through the power lead of the cable via the second interface.
