ValidatorTM Introduction

Validator-NT performs specified tests that produce PASS or FAIL results on a wide range of standard cables. In addition, a Bit Error Rate Test (BERT) is performed to determine the actual speed capabilities of CAT 5, CAT 5E, and CAT 6 network cables. A green check mark with VoIP indicates the cable is certified to support a data rate of 100 Megabit or greater, which is a basic requirement for VoIP applications.

The following chart specifies the pre programmed tests that are performed on specific cable types (see figure 7).

In addition, the installer can define custom or nonstandard cable type test definitions. Once a Custom Cable Definition is created, you can create a Template File to store this information and retrieve it as needed.
