High speed data communication is either Cat-5 TP or fiber.
You can dismiss the need to test fiber by engineering argument
Cat-5 TP should be tested using a clamp.

Don,
I would assume that a "High Speed Bus" over 3 meters in length would most
likely
be a shielded cable. In this case you can't use the clamp. You'll have to
use
the direct couple method into the shield of the cable through a 100 ohm
resistor. This method is also described in EN61000-4-6.

Don,
If no CDN networks are suitable - and indeed they are not for high
communication
lines -, you should consider the possibility to use the EM-clamp as
described in
EN61000-4-6. That's the way we perform tests without degradation of the EUT
signals.

Chris
