Whether installing new cabling, or troubleshooting existing cables, testing your cables is of utmost importance. Cables need to be tested thoroughly to ensure the integrity of information sent through them.
The main issues are signal strength and signal interference. These manifest in many ways, from minor imperfections in the cabling to resistance, correct pairing of wires at both ends and more. Interference is caused by an electromagnetic field building in the wire that induces a current in adjacent wires causing the signal to become garbled or overpowered. This is similar to the effect from phone lines being crossed where you can hear another conversation in the background.
As networks evolve and become not only faster but more complex, the requirements for better performance increases. This means that better grades of cabling are required to handle the increased speed and combat the loss of signal strength and increased interference in the line.
Certification test tools determine whether a line is compliant with its category specifications, which are independent of specific network technologies. Certification is the final step required by many structured cabling manufacturers to grant their warranties for a new cabling installation.
