Automated Communication Cable Test System

Automated Comm CableTesting of Low and High Frequency Parameters of Multi-pair Telecommunication Cables & Coaxial Cables

With increasing competition and customers seeking quality products with specifications and standards defined by organizations like IEEE, cable testing is fast becoming a need for every cable manufacturer to maintain cable standards at various frequencies and signal strengths.

Testing cables at different frequencies and temperature ranges provides the necessary flexibility to a manufacturer to configure his products as desired and meet the specifications demanded by customers.

Adroit’s new launch of Automatic Cable Test System (ACTS) has further strengthened its footage in Cable Industry. ACTS provides a reliable and repeatable test platform available for testing twisted pair telecom cables. ACTS includes multi pair test fixtures for testing cables up to 3GHz.

ACTS is an off-the-shelf, stand-alone solution consisting of Loads, Baluns and Wire Test Frame to connect Test Cables easily and quickly. Additional time is saved because only one cable connection is needed to test all the parameters eliminating the need for multiple cable connections.

The software enables fast, simple and easy testing of cables specifically according to the cable standards. The specification program enables fast and easy entry of specific international cable specifications and test limits, thus cable testing is simple and easy and is performed in minutes.

With ACTS, Reporting and Data Logging highly configurable to needs of Testing. The windows based interface enables the operator to easily and quickly set parameters for testing and save recipes for future use. Limit values can be easily programmed to suite the requirements of client.

The reporting structure provides operator with various options to obtain reports as desired – from simple Pass/fail summary of test to detailed graphical and tabular representation of specific parameters.

Benefits

• Automated and fast test results – Reduces testing time considerably and eliminates requirement of Skilled operator.

• Measurement on various communication cables – CAT V/Ve, CAT VI/VIe, Coaxial, other twisted pairs

• Standard panel available with 32 pair measurement facility & Easily scal-able to meet higher requirements

• Fully, and securely, automates and controls the network analyzer – un-skilled operators can perform complex RF testing

• Automatic Selection of Cable Pairs – once cables are connected to Test Fixture, the system automatically selects pairs to measure parameters

• Measurements at different lengths of cable and Temperatures Correction Facility

• Measurements at Frequencies between 300 Khz to 3 Ghz

• Comprehensive and comparative test report for all parameters

• Fully customizable reports and results saved in desired format for future reference

Measurement Parameters

• Insertion Loss (Attenuation)

• Attenuation to Crosstalk Ratio (ACR)

• Near End Crosstalk Loss (NEXT) & Far End Crosstalk Loss (FEXT)

• Velocity of Propagation (VoP)

• Propagation Delay and Delay Skew

• Crosstalk Power Sums

• Impedance (Input & Characteristic)

• Return Loss & Structural Return Loss (SRL)
