A method and apparatus for isolating and analyzing segments of a deployed, operational cable plant from a remote location. Individual cables, or segments, within an operationally deployed cable plant infrastructure may be isolated and analyzed without requiring a technician to physically inspect and perform an on-site analysis. The approach allows a cable segment to be isolated and analyzed without physically disconnecting the cable from the deployed infrastructure. By isolating and analyzing selected cable plant segments, an entire deployed cable plant infrastructure may be discretely analyzed and specific problems within the cable plant infrastructure may be identified. The approach allows the analyses to be performed from a remote location and is compatible with and may be integrated within a multipurpose network management system.
