Abstract

An apparatus for coupling a signal to and from a cable including a plurality of twisted pairs, the apparatus having: a first coupling unit arranged to couple a voltage signal to the cable, wherein the first coupling unit has a first electrode and a second electrode arranged to produce an electric field therebetween to couple the voltage signal to the cable by non-contact coupling with the twisted pairs so that the voltage signal propagates along the cable between at least two of the twisted pairs; and a second coupling unit arranged to receive the voltage signal which has propagated along the cable, wherein the second coupling unit has a first electrode and a second electrode arranged to receive the voltage signal which has propagated along the cable between at least two of the twisted pairs by non-contact coupling with at least two of the twisted pairs between which the voltage signal has propagated. The signal may be used to determine patch cable interconnections in a communications network such as a LAN or may be used to perform reflectometry tests on the cable.
