Electrical
Measurements |
| |
The following electrical
transmission parameters have been measured
for all pairs or combination of pairs for
the tested connecting hardware samples: |
| |
- Return loss from 1 MHz - 250 MHz, measured
from both sides of the connecting hardware
- Attenuation from 1 MHz - 250 MHz
- Pair-pair near end crosstalk from 1
MHz - 250 MHz, measured from both sides
of the
connecting hardware
- Pair-pair far end crosstalk from 1
MHz - 250 MHz, measured for all 2×6
combinations of pairs
- DC resistance
- DC resistance unbalance
- Current carrying capacity
- Propagation delay from 1 MHz - 250
MHz
- Delay skew from 1 MHz - 250 MHz
- Coupling attenuation and EMC performance
from 30 MHz - 1 GHz, recorded as both
near and far end measurements
- Common mode balance from 1 MHz - 250
MHz, measured as TCL from both sides of
the connecting hardware
- Transfer impedance from 1 MHz - 100
MHz
- Insulation resistance
- Voltage proof

Final
Testing |
| |
Telebox Industries
Corp. has very extensive electrical high frequency
testing of produced
connecting hardware, which is documented as
either pass/fail result or with recording
of tested
electrical parameters in the full specified
frequency range. Failing components are offered
to the
customer with documented performance data.
Frequency of testing depends on component
type and experience, but no documented
sampling
procedure is present at Telebox Industries
Corp.
The following data for final testing at Telebox
Industries Corp. has been concluded by 3P:
