 CAT-6 -Return Loss failed (RL and RL @ Remote)
Hi i have one situation that for me is complecated.I run cat6 utp netwok cable, When I connect each end of the cable to a Fluke DSP-4000 & DTX-1800 Network Analyzer it tells me that Return Loss failed (RL and RL @ Remote). I check details on the analyzer it says that pair 3,6 failed 4,5 failed and the others passed. All the cables are inside of metal gutter. i have 2 question: 1-What kind of problem can give Return Loss failed (RL and RL @ Remote) ? 2-Just i want to be sure that this network will work in 1000 mb.

Thanks in advance Emiljo
