Wires & Wireless offer a full network cable testing service for all copper or fibre installations.
Approximately 75% of all network faults are cable related – mostly due to incorrect installation. We can rectify these faults before you move into your new office and start experiencing problems.

Network Cable Testing is a simple and yet essential service provided by Wires & Wireless to ensure the smooth running of your network.

Cable Testing Certification

Testing and Certification are the most important steps in any cable installation. Because today’s Fast Ethernet transmission speeds “push the envelope” of any cabling system, it is critical that all components be thoroughly tested. Plugging the network equipment together and verifying that it “works” is not enough. Certification is especially important to prevent expensive upgrades to your cabling system when upgrading to faster networking technologies in the future.

Cable Certification Reports

Category 5 and Category 6 certification requires special test equipment called scanners. Every cable and connector that we install is scanned and a printed report is provided verifying compliance to the Category 5 and Category 6 standards. Accept no less in your network cabling installations.

Our cabling systems are installed to meet Category 5 and Category 6 performance standards. These standards insure that your network cabling can accommodate the bandwidth requirements of today’s 100Mbps Fast Ethernet as well as tomorrow’s faster technologies.

All components of the cabling system that we install including the cable, modular connectors and patch panels are rated for Category 5 and Category 6 performance. Installation of these components is performed in accordance with the recognized standards.
