The cable test - not to compare with a top of the line RF pulse and reflectometer tester - requires standard compliant cables, and fully terminated end. What is shown there as a short could be caused by certain Fast Ethernet devices, with not full standards compliant random wire grounding at the other end for example.
Also keep in mind, these are smart switches, by far not fully managed switches.
If the camera works, does establish a Fast Ethernet or probably a Gigabit Ethernet link, forget about the cable test.
