Telecommunication port testing apparatus
View Patent ↗A telecommunication port testing apparatus includes a first power interface, two first telecommunication ports, a first impedance stabilization network (ISN), a first impedance matching network, and a second impedance matching network. The first ISN includes an input, an output, and a signal detecting pin. The first power interface is connected to the input of the first ISN through the first impedance matching network and one of the two first telecommunication ports in that order. The output of the first ISN is grounded through the other one of the two first telecommunication ports and the second impedance matching network in that order.
