To test TERA® Solutions from Siemon, you can use the DSX-8000 CableAnalyzer, which has been approved by Siemon. TERA® is Siemon's Category 7 connector used in Class F, Class FA and Class II cabling systems. It is a non-8P8C (RJ-45 style), shielded connector. Since it is not 8P8C (RJ45 style) based, you cannot use yDSX-PLA804 Permanent Link Adapters. Likewise, you cannot use yDSX-CHA804 Channel Adapters.
To test Siemon TERA® correctly with a DSX-8000, you need to order the DSX-8-TERA-KIT for yDSX-8000 CableAnalyzer.
Do NOT order just the DSX-PLA-8-TERA-S, TERA Permanent Link Adapters! You also need at least one DSX-CHA-8-TERA, TERA® Channel Adapter so you can Set Reference with the main and remote units.Ordering the DSX-8-TERA-KIT is the best option when you initially need to start testing on a TERA® project.
