Abstract: A system for transferring data from one source to plural destination devices, employs timing and bus signal control to have one destination device treat the transfer as a read operation, while another destination device treats the transfer as a write operation.
Abstract: A link cable assembly is provided as an interface between a network cable test instrument and a network to be tested. The link cable assembly includes a link cable that is constructed to minimize cross talk and have long-term high quality reliability. Interchangeable connector personality modules releasably attached to the link cable permit testing networks having different electrical characteristics. Calibration data may be stored within the cable assembly to allow intrinsic “patch cord” return loss to be factored out of network cable measurements.
