Testing & Documentation

TESTING

Axiom tests every cable after installation and termination to verify that a high quality connection has been established and completed. We use the Fluke series of test equipment. Capable of verifying systems we install today — as well as those we will be providing well into the future.

Fluke DSX-5000 cable Analyzer features include:

  • Certifies category 3, 4, 5, 5e, 6, 6a and 7 per TIA 568-C.2
  • Permanent link and Channel tests.
  • Meets test requirements of the TIA/EIA 568 and ISO 11801 standards including “Permanent Link” characterization.
  • OLTS fiber certification and OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer) fiber certification.
  • Large internal/external memory capacity for extensive reporting and recordkeeping.

DOCUMENTATION

Documentation encompasses both labeling and reporting activities and is a key component in Axiom’s quality control efforts.

Labeling

Axiom Solutions carefully labels all of our network installations in accordance with the ANSI/TIA/EIA-606-A Label Standard. Following this standard results in neat, attractive network installations and is a hallmark of quality in our industry.

ANSI/TIA/EIA-606-A Label Standard calls for:

  • Labeling horizontal link cables as they are installed (precludes the need to fight through a thick bundle of cables at the back of the patch panel, and also prevents having to remove the faceplate a second time to pull enough cable through the wall to allow access to the cable for labeling).
  • Labeling to within 12 inches (300 mm) on either end of the cable both at the back of the patch panel and just behind the wall outlet plate at the work center.
  • Label must be mechanically generated, not handwritten.

This industry standard promotes uniformity and thoroughness in documentation, so networks can be serviced, repaired and upgraded quickly and easily, saving you time, money and frustration in the future.

REPORTING

Axiom Solutions maintains quality control reports on file for all of our network installations, available to clients at any time for certification, insurance or other recordkeeping needs. Detailed, high-quality test results can be generated through our Lantek interface and printed for your convenience, or stored at Axiom for future reference. We can also provide diagrams and “As Built” schematics detailing the work we have performed.
