Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide configurations for testing arrangements for testing multi-lane active cables. In one embodiment, a testing arrangement may comprise a testing module comprising a pattern generator to be coupled with an active cable having a plurality of lanes to generate a test pattern to be transmitted over the active cable, wherein the test pattern is to be transmitted at least over two or more lanes of the active cable that are concatenated, and a processing unit to be coupled with the active cable to process a result of the transmission of the test pattern over the active cable. The arrangement may further include a plurality of testing cables to concatenate two or more of the lanes of the active cable, to enable the transmission of the test pattern over the concatenated lanes of the active cable. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
