A cable emulator configured to emulate the electrical transfer function and properties of a length of conductive cable is disclosed for use in transmitter, receiver and transceiver operation without need for long and expensive length of actual cable. The cable emulator includes an input port for connection to a signal source, such as a transmitter and an output port for connection to a receiver or other signal analyzer. The input port connects to an input impedance matching element, which in turn connects to one or more filter stages. The output of the one or more filter stages connects to an output impedance matching element, which then connects to the output port. The one or more filter stage comprises one or more to resistors, one or more inductors and one or more capacitors.
