Network Validation


Preactive and active tests to validate system installation and ensure performance is within standards outlined by TIA/EIA, ODVA and CNI.
Preactive Testing
(Network Installation Qualification (IQ))
Devices not connected and activated to verify installation of new networks and prevent commissioning problems. The following attributes are verified:
- Network topology
- Routing/cable length
- Component specification
- Terminators/resistance
- Operating environment
- Wiring and grounding
Active Testing
(Network Operation/Process Qualification (OQ/PQ))
All devices connected and activated to ensure reliable communications and verify critical operating parameters. The following attributes are verified:
- Signal quality
- Propagation delay
- Common mode voltage (DNET)
