Abstract

A method and system for verification of connector placement via loopback schemas is disclosed. The method for verification of connector placement via loopback schemas applies a schema to the loopback facilities associated with the signaling pairs at a particular port, with the schema being identified at the remote end of a cable connected to the port via a connectivity test, and the resulting schema identifying the port connected thereto. The method and system for verification of connector placement via loopback schemas provides advantages over systems known in the art positively identifying a particular port while eliminating the requirement for detailed connector labeling.
