ABSTRACT:
In one preferred embodiment, an apparatus for testing a cable includes an interface for connecting to a connector of the cable, many resistors, a socket, and a meter for testing resistance of the resistors. The interface has many pins, the resistors respectively connected to the pins in series, and the socket is electrically connected to the pins respectively via the resistors. The meter includes two probes, one of the probes is connected to another connector of the cable, and the other one of the probes is plugged into the socket. Because conductors of the cable are respectively connected to the resistors in series, the user can tell whether the cable has a fault according to the resistance indicated by the meter.
