Chapter 2: Overview What is LAN Performance Verification? LAN performance verification means that a UTP cable passed a prescribed battery of tests and is therefore not likely to cause problems later. The LPV has two levels of verification: LPV Level 1: Performed with the Main Unit and the Remote Probe, Level 1 tests the cable for length; opens, shorts, split pairs and distance to the fault; wire map (displays cable wiring); NEXT and FEXT (crosstalk tests); propagation delay (time to transit

Chapter 3: The 3 Phases of LAN Installation 3. The Three Phases of LAN Installation The LPV is designed for the network installer, the network repair person, and the IT manager. The tests used during the three phases of LAN installation can also be used to troubleshoot LANs that have operational problems. The installation of a LAN is generally handled in phases. The cabling is installed; then the switches and PCs are installed; and then everything is connected. The LPV plays a role during a
