Product Tests & Speed Certifies Data-Carrying Capabilities Of Ethernet Cables
To certify Ethernet speed performance of cable runs, the Net Chaser conducts bit error rate (BER) tests by sending data packets down specified cable runs at defined data rates to check for errors at the maximum throughput of the link. The Net Chaser reports on signal quality that can impact high-speed data transmission by measuring signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Skew measurements report on the signal time delay between pairs that can impact Gigabit data transmission. Finally, the Net Chaser unit provides continuity testing that detects opens, shorts, miswires, split pairs, reversals, and high-resistance faults while accurately measuring distance to faults and total cable length. The Net Chaser also includes a comprehensive set of features for testing active network capabilities.
