[QUOTE="Rick York, post: 80612, member: 3740"] re: Ethernet Cable Testing and Category Verification I wouldn't call this TCP/IP cable testing. I would call it Ethernet cable testing. This is because Ethernet is a physical and data link layer description and the cables you are discussing being tested are in the physical layer. TCP/IP encompasses the next two higher layers, network (IP) and transport (TCP). I mention this because TCP/IP can operate on physical layers other than categories 5 and 6 like fiber and wireless in the 801 family of standards. [/QUOTE]
