A margin tester includes one or more ports to allow the margin tester to connect to a device under test (DUT), a memory, the memory containing a margin tester signature, a transmitter, a receiver to receive signals from the DUT, one or more processors configured to execute code that causes the one or more processors to: receive multiple signals from the receiver through the one or more ports, generate a performance indicator from the multiple signals, send the performance indicator and the margin tester signature to one or more machine learning networks, and receiving a result from the one or more machine learning networks containing a performance measurement prediction for the DUT.
