2 Legrand Test report number CRT-14 March 2, 216 SECTIONS USED: Section 6.2 of ANSI/ 568-C.2: Channel transmission performance (6.2.1 to ) Section 6.4 of /IEC 1181: Channel transmission performance (Sections to and to ) AUTHORIZATION: The project was authorized by Mr. Rob Aekins RCDD, representing Legrand Data Communications Incorporated. EQUIPMENT LIST: The following equipment was employed in conducting the tests. Equipment used Model number Serial number Calibration date Calibration due date Agilent Technologies Network Analyzer E571B MY /27/215 7/27/216 Hewlett Packard Multimeter 3441A US /27/215 7/27/216 DATE OF TEST: February 1, 216 TEST REPORT REVISION HISTORY: First Issue: March 2, 216 Original Document RESULTS: See appendixes A through C for the test results. CONCLUSION: The channel cabling configuration, as previously described and supplied by the client, was tested in accordance with the standards referred to herein, and did comply with the indicated applicable transmission requirements. The procedures and requirements from the standards were followed, and the testing was performed at the client s facility as part of their qualifications under Intertek s SAT program.
