Pair 3, 4 Short or Abnormal Termination

Just connected 5 Hikvision cameras (100M interface) and cable test is failing on all of them. It either says Short or Abnormal Termination on Pairs 3 and 4. Other than that everything seems to be working fine...

That's normal behavior for a 10/100 device

Maybe do some searching and reading on this forum

Start with this thread: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1178

cross-short is the bad ones to look for

But technically there is no Ethernet Standard that shorts pairs so of course it says fail

OK, thanks. Maybe the cable tester message should be updated.
