Abstract

A method may include transmitting one or more first test signals to electrical pathways of a connector-cable interface between a cable and a test circuit board in the absence of mechanical stress applied by a mechanical stressor to the connector-cable interface, performing measurements for one or more signal equalization parameters based on resultant signals from the electrical pathways resulting from the one or more first test signals in the absence of and in the presence of mechanical stress applied by the mechanical stressor to the connector-cable interface, and based on differences between the measurements, determining whether or not the connector-cable interface has satisfied signal integrity requirements.
