Test parameters include wire map plus <br />ScTP shield continuity (when present), length, NEXT loss (pair-to-pair), NEXT loss (power <br />sum), ELFEXT loss (pair-to-pair), ELFEXT loss (power sum), return loss, insertion loss, <br />propagation delay, and delay skew. <br /> <br />TEST EQUIPMENT CRITERIA <br /> <br />· All balanced twisted-pair field testers shall be factory calibrated each calendar year by the <br />field test equipment manufacturer as stipulated by the manuals provided with the field test <br />unit. The calibration certificate shall be provided for review prior to the start of testing. <br />· Auto test settings provided in the field tester for testing the installed cabling shall be set to the <br />default parameters <br />· Test settings selected from options provided in the field testers shall be compatible with the <br />installed cable under test. <br /> <br />11.2 FIBER OPTIC TESTING <br /> <br />HORIZONTAL FIBER TESTING <br /> <br />· Fiber horizontal cables shall be 100% tested for insertion loss and length. <br /> <br />· Insertion loss shall be tested at 850 nm or 1300 nm for 50/125f,.lm and 62.5/125f,.lm multimode <br />cabling in at least one direction using the Method B (1-jumper) test procedure as specified in <br />ANSIITIA/EIA-526-14A. <br /> <br />· Length shall be tested using an OTDR, optical length test measurement device or sequential <br />cable measurement markings. <br /> <br />BACKBONE FIBER TESTING <br />· Fiber horizontal cables shall be 100% tested for insertion lo~s and length. <br />· Insertion loss shall be tested at 850 nm and 1300 nm for 50/1251lm and 62,5/125f,.lm <br />multimode cabling in at least one direction using the Method B (1-jumper) test procedure as <br />specified in ANSIITIA/EIA-526-14A. <br /> <br />SIB <br />
