be deferred.
The purpose of testing is to demonstrate that the workmanship on site has been adequate
and it should be noted that a successful test of a cable does not assure that the cable is free
from faults. Each cable and termination should be visually inspected for faults and for
workmanship standards. Where testing is carried out, the cable test shall demonstrate that
the cable installation is to the required standard.
Cables that continually fail tests shall be pulled out and replaced by complete runs of new
cable. Cable jointing or running of part segments will not be acceptable.

2.30.3 UTP Category 6 Testing
Every pair of every installed and terminated cable shall be tested to meet the link
performance characteristics stated in EIA/TIA 568B:2000.
Computed results that indicate that some part of the test result is closer to the limit than the
tolerance of the test equipment may be noted as ‘PASS*’ or ‘FAIL*’. Such results will not be
accepted as a demonstration that the installed works meet the criteria of this specification.

• Confirmation of mapping of core terminations on patch panels
• The length of the link in meters, to the nearest metre from the OTDR
• A printout of the OTDR trace, showing the information detailed below
The hardcopy of the OTDR should be scaled to allow measurements of insertion loss across
all splices and connectors on the link to the nearest 0.1dB. The location of all splices and
connectors should be clearly indicated, along with the measured insertion loss. These
requirements may be generated by the OTDR tester in the form of an event table.
The results of the OTDR testing must be provided on magnetic media, in addition to a hard
copy. This should be capable of being read into a PC based application provided to the
Client.
2.30.5 Certificate of Conformance

Pigtailed connectors, patch and drop cable assemblies shall have passed the following tests
before delivery to site:
• thermal cycling to determine ageing and MTBFs
• front and back lit inspections of connectors with a microscope
• connector shall be considered to have passed this test if there are no visible signs of damage or substandard terminations
• random mated loss of each connector shall be less than 0.5dB
• random mated loss across a link with two connections shall be less than 1.1dB
Each certificate of conformance for the above shall confirm that all tests have been passed
and shall be signed and dated by the tester. Each certificate shall state the random mated
