Abstract
Presented herein are embodiments of a compact handheld integrated cabling assist (CHICA) device that has a form factor of a transceiver. In one or more embodiments, a CHICA embodiment may pair with a cabling assist application (CA-App) to guide a user with cabling decisions. A user may insert a transceiver (optic/DAC) in a mini-cage of the CHICA, wherein the CHICA reads the transceiver data, transmits the data to the CA-App to confirm that the transceiver meets the configuration requirements of the switch port. In one or more embodiments, a user may also interact with the CA-App to write data (e.g., EEPROM fields) to the transceiver by issuing commands via the CHICA device.
