- Attenuation:
- Std. is a TIA 568C.2 Maximum (also called “Insertion Loss”) Lower is better.
- NEXT:
- Std. is a TIA 568C.2 Minimum. (Near End Crosstalk) Higher is better.
- ACR:
- NEXT minus Attenuation ; (“Attenuation to Crosstalk Ratio”) Higher is better.
- SNEXT:
- Std. is a TIA 568C.2 Minimum. (Power Sum Near End Crosstalk) Higher is better.
- PSACR:
- PSNEXT minus Attenuation ; (“Attenuation to PSNEXT Ratio”) Higher is better.
- ACRF:
- Std. is a TIA 568C.2 Minimum. (Attenuation Crosstalk Ratio at Far End) Higher is better.
- PSACRF:
- Std. is a TIA 568C.2 Minimum. (Power Sum Atten.’ to Crosstalk Ratio) Higher is better.
- RL:
- Std. is a TIA 568C.2 Minimum. (Return Loss) Higher is better.
