Solution
 | Be aware that - contrary to Channel adapters and Permanent Link adapters - Patch Cord adapters are category specific. |
You'll need one Patch Cord adapter per pair of DSX modules for MPTL testing.
Patch Cord Adapters are suitable for all DSX models:
| Model | Desription |
|---|---|
| DSX-PC5E | Single Cat 5e Adapter with Shielded Cat 5e Patch Cord Jack Installed |
| DSX-PC6 | Single Cat 6 Adapter with Shielded Cat 6 Patch Cord Jack Installed |
| DSX-PC6A | Single Cat 6A Adapter with Shielded Cat 6A Patch Cord Jack Installed |
The same adapters are also available is sets of two.
| Like the tip of the Permanent Link adapter, the jack of a Patch Cord adapter need to be replaced when damaged or worn out. |
In case the RJ45 jack is end-of-use and needs replacement, these are the spare parts you need:
| Model | Desription |
|---|---|
| DSX-PCTAC5EKS | Set of two Shielded Cat 5e Replacement Patch Cord Jacks |
| DSX-PCTAC6KS | Set of two Shielded Cat 6 Replacement Patch Cord Jacks |
| DSX-PCTAC6AKS | Set of two Shielded Cat 6A Replacement Patch Cord Jacks |
These are only available is sets of two.
