Testing & Certification

Network cable testing and certification with professional equipment

Testing & Certification

Fluke DSX copper testing, OTDR fiber testing, certification reports, and manufacturer warranty documentation for every installation.

Overview

About This Service

Testing and certification is not optional — it's the proof that your cabling infrastructure performs to specification. Barton's Network uses Fluke DSX-8000 equipment for copper certification and OTDR instruments for fiber testing on every project. Certification reports are delivered in digital format at project close, and we provide the documentation required to activate manufacturer channel warranties on certified installations.
