A cable test is performed on the selected port. The cable test might take up to two seconds 
to complete. If the port has an active link, the cable status is always Normal. The 
command returns a cable length estimate if this feature is supported by the PHY for the 
current link speed. If the link is down and a cable is attached to a 10/100 Ethernet 
adapter, then the cable status can be Open or Short because some Ethernet adapters 
leave unused wire pairs unterminated or grounded.
