## Tracing Cables
A cable may be traced from either of its endpoints by clicking the "trace" button. (A REST API endpoint also provides this functionality.) NetBox will follow the path of connected cables from this termination across the directly connected cable to the far-end termination. If the cable connects to a pass-through port, and the peer port has another cable connected, NetBox will continue following the cable path until it encounters a non-pass-through or unconnected termination point. The entire path will be displayed to the user.
In the example below, three individual cables comprise a path between devices A and D:

* Cable 3: Front Port 2 to Interface 2
