DSX-5000 Measurement Accuracy
For Class F
A
tests, the DSX-5000 CableAnalyzer modules are
compliant with Level V requirements as in the draft 5
th
edition of
IEC 61935-1.
For Category 6A/Class E
A
tests, the DSX Series CableAnalyzer
modules are compliant with Level IIIe requirements of TIA 1152
and Level IV of IEC 61935-1.
Worst case accuracy performance parameters are used for asterisk
(*) results reporting. These are based on computation of the
overall measurement accuracy based on the worst case of each
parameter at each frequency data point. Observed differences
between laboratory equipment and DSX CableAnalyzer modules
using calibration verification artifacts were used as a
confirmation.
The next table shows the accuracy performance parameters for
the DSX-5000 modules.
