Maintenance Using TDR
The time domain reflectometer (TDR) is supported on all Dell Networking switch/routers.
TDR is an assistance tool to resolve link issues that helps detect obvious open or short conditions within
any of the four copper pairs. TDR sends a signal onto the physical cable and examines the reflection of
the signal that returns. By examining the reflection, TDR is able to indicate whether there is a cable fault
(when the cable is broken, becomes unterminated, or if a transceiver is unplugged).
TDR is useful for troubleshooting an interface that is not establishing a link; that is, when the link is
flapping or not coming up. TDR is not intended to be used on an interface that is passing traffic. When a
TDR test is run on a physical cable, it is important to shut down the port on the far end of the cable.
Otherwise, it may lead to incorrect test results.
NOTE: TDR is an intrusive test. Do not run TDR on a link that is up and passing traffic.
To test the condition of cables on 100/1000/10000 BASE-T modules, use the following commands.
1. To test for cable faults on the TenGigabitEthernet cable.
EXEC Privilege mode
tdr-cable-test tengigabitethernet <slot>/<port>
Between two ports, do not start the test on both ends of the cable.
Enable the interface before starting the test.
Enable the port to run the test or the test prints an error message.
2. Displays TDR test results.
EXEC Privilege mode
show tdr tengigabitethernet <slot>/<port>
Splitting QSFP Ports to SFP+ Ports
The MXL 10/40GbE switch supports splitting a 40GbE port on the base module or a 2-Port 40GbE QSFP+
module into four 10GbE SFP+ ports using a 4x10G breakout cable.
NOTE: By default, the 40GbE ports on a 2-Port 40GbE QSFP+ module come up in 4x10GbE (quad)
mode as eight 10GbE ports. On the base module, you must convert the 40GbE ports to 4x10GbE
mode as described in the following section.
