Introduction

The new test paradigm Modular Link Terminated Link (MPTL) requires the use of one Patch Cord Adapter wich is not included in any Versiv test kit.

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 that are available and suitable for both DSX-5000 and DSX-8000 modules:

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

These adapters are also available as a set of two adapters.

Just like the tip of the PLA004 or PLA804 Permanent Link adapter, the jack of a Patch Cord adapter need to be replaced when damaged or worn out. 

These are the corresponding spare parts:

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
