Fluke testing is typically used to verify the performance of copper cables, such as Ethernet cables, and to ensure that they meet the requirements of a particular standard. Where the cables may seem to be in good condition and free of damage from the outside, beneath the jacket may lie a number of complexities. Common tests performed during a fluke test include, but are not limited to;

  • Continuity testing: This test ensures that all of the wires in the cable are connected to the correct termination points.
  • Insulation resistance testing: This test measures the resistance between the conductors in the cable.
  • NEXT testing: This test measures the amount of signal that is leaked from one conductor to another.
  • Return loss testing: This test measures the amount of signal reflected back from the end of the cable.

Fluke testing is a valuable tool for ensuring the quality and performance of copper cables. By conducting regular fluke tests, organizations can help to prevent downtime and improve the reliability of their networks. Contact a member of our team to find out more.

Here are some of the benefits of fluke testing:

  • It can help to identify problems with cables before they cause outages or performance problems.
  • It can help to ensure that cables meet the requirements of industry standards.
  • It can help to improve the reliability of networks.
  • It can help to save time and money by preventing the need to troubleshoot and repair cables that are not functioning correctly.
