Service
Proof that your cabling does what it should.
Testing tells you whether cabling is wired correctly and meets the performance it was designed for. Different tests prove different things.
The problem
Why it matters
A cable that 'works' for a laptop today might fail at 2.5 or 10 GbE later. Only appropriate testing shows what a link supports.
How it works
Our approach
- 01Verification checks wiremap, continuity and length — is it wired correctly?
- 02Qualification checks whether a link can support a specific network application, such as 1 or 10 GbE.
- 03Certification measures against a standard (for example Cat6A channel or permanent link limits) and produces a pass/fail report.
- 04Fibre loss testing and OTDR are distinct services — a copper tester doesn't perform them.
Reading a report
What a certification result shows
Reports show cable ID, test limit, length, wiremap, pass/fail and electrical measurements. A Cat6A permanent link pass indicates the cabling supports 10 GbE; it is not a measurement of internet speed.
