San Diego hit its highest ever recorded temperature this summer, the Southwest experienced what meteorologists have dubbed the “great 2017 heat wave,” and even New Jersey’s Newark airport broke its 1973 record with a sweltering 97 degrees. Unfortunately, experts predict that the expanse of hotter-than-average temperatures will continue to grow in August—from the West coast through the Plains and into parts of the Midwest and Southeast.
PSC brings to India simple gas detector devices that does not need calibration or charge. Gas Clip Technologies developed innovative portable gas detectors that offer greater reliability, improved productivity, and better cost-efficiency. Businesses count on these units every day to accurately test for combustible gases, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), carbon monoxide (CO), and oxygen (O2). Our products are designed to withstand the harshest, toughest industries, including oil and gas, utilities, waste water treatment, telecommunications, and marine, among others.
How do you direct conditioned air and restrict hot air re-circulation while facilitating cable management in the front of an enclosure?
Great Lakes' Brush Grommet Kt is the solution.
The reliable identification of low combustion oxygen in a red heater or boiler has always been critical to the effectiveness of the Burner Management System for proper control and safety.
Low emission burners and aggressive ring control points to achieve increased efficiency and emission reductions have driven the industry to tighter control measures. But tighter control measures also hold a greater potential for combustion damage. Reducing the risk of a combustion event has become a priority and has led to the implementation of Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). This additional layer of safety is added to the Basic Process Control System.

This presentation will be discussing the issues with the reduction of the necessary natural or passive ventilation in a home that is substantially reduced when SPF insulation is installed. The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) have had a residential ventilation standard since 2003, ASHRAE 62.2. So while a home’s recommended minimum ventilation rate remained unchanged for many years, ASHRAE has recognized the tighter construction of today’s homes and 10 years after the initial ASHRAE 62.2, there are new and controversial changes to the 2013 version of ASHRAE 62.2.

ISO/IEC 14763-3 edition 2 was published in 2014. This standard supports the implementation and operation of customer premises cabling by specifying systems and methods for inspecting and testing optical fiber cabling. In 2015, a corrigendum was published. Currently, an amendment is under review to make further corrections. Also, a supplement to the amendment was added.
The corrigendum made changes to connecting hardware attenuation values and modified the equations for test limits. The amendment made corrections to end face inspection, test methods, and uncertainty. The supplement to the amendment fixed errors within the uncertainties. Details of the changes are described herein.
Cable testing 101 how to read the link ware™ pc reportsmithponting
The section just below the blue area on your report shows the wire map test and a boxed-out area with critical values for the cable under test. These include the length (displayed in feet or meters depending on what the user selected), propagation delay, delay skew, resistance and insertion loss margin.
The detail of the insertion loss margin can be seen in the insertion loss graph to the right, and it includes the margin based on the worst pair, at what frequency and the test limit for that frequency.
Standards update the four a’s of harmonizationsmithponting
When TIA adopts an IEC standard, or vice versa, it quite literally means that they take on and follow the standard. For example, TIA adopted the IEC 61280-4-1 multimode fiber optic testing standards as TIA-526-14-C. Because TIA has an outdated singlemode fiber optic testing standard, they are also considering the adoption of IEC 61280-4-2. If they do, it will be published as TIA-526-7.
Standard update 25 gbase t joins the party!smithponting
Since the development of 40GBASE-T (IEEE 802.3bq) began a few years ago, most of us believed that the next Ethernet data center speed for twisted-pair copper cabling beyond 10 Gb/s would be 40 Gb/s.
But in November 2014, IEEE 802.3 put out a call for interest on 25GBASE-T, driven by the likes of Cisco, Microsoft and Intel who recognized 25 Gb/s as a more efficient, cost-effective option for switch-to-server speeds in cloud-based data centers. Hence the 25GBASE-T IEEE study group was formed.
Standard update 25 gbase t joins the party!smithponting
With representatives from 25 companies overwhelmingly pledging support for the formation of the 25GBASE-T study group, the likes of Microsoft, Cisco and Intel driving the party bus, and a demonstrated broad market potential, 25GBASE-T is definitely a welcomed partygoer.
Why is 25GBASE-T considered a more cost-effective step in the migration to 40GBASE-T? Not only does it support the backwards compatibility of BASE-T technology and enable equipment vendors to limit the power per port to under 3W, it can also leverage existing transceiver technology to establish a fixed migration path to 40GBASE-T over the same 30-meter channel.
Benefits of fiber optic and passive optical lan testsmithponting
Passive optical LANs are a point-to-multipoint fiber architecture that use passive optical splitters to divide the signal from one singlemode fiber into multiple fiber signals. The signals are transmitted simultaneously in both directions over separate wavelengths using wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology—1310nm for upstream data and 1490nm for downstream data.
By increasing the level of noise within the channel, alien crosstalk decreases signal-to-noise ratio and degrades the bandwidth capabilities of the cable, potentially preventing the cable from supporting 10 Gig transmission. This is precisely why standards bodies like TIA and BICSI, as well as most cable manufacturers, recommend letting cables have a “natural lay” in pathways and conduit. But even with this recommendation, there are still some customers that require cables to be combined in neat bundles. There are even tools available for quickly and efficiently straightening, combing and organizing cables into multiple bundles with ease.
By now you’ve probably heard of 8-fiber MPO plug and play solutions available on the market, which are ideal for Gigabit (40GBASE-SR4) and 100 Gigabit (100GBASESR4) applications that use 8 fibers with 4 transmitting and 4 receiving at either 10 or 25 Gb/s. Unlike 12-fiber MPO solutions where 4 of the 12 fibers go unused, 8-fiber MPO solutions offer 100% fiber utilization in these applications. But did you know that when looking ahead to future fiber applications, 8-fiber MPO solutions continue to make the most sense? That’s because all future duplex, parallel optic and WDM-based fiber applications are divisible by either 2 or 8 fibers – not 12.
A closer look at 40 gig duplex multimode applicationssmithponting
There’s been a lot of talk in the industry surrounding solutions capable of running 40 Gig Ethernet over duplex multimode fiber—especially with OM5 wideband multimode fiber (WBMMF) now recognized within industry standards that specifies wavelengths between 840 and 953 nanometers to support wave division multiplexing (WDM).
How high speed fiber applications is impacting the networking arenasmithponting
In last week’s blog, we took a Closer Look at 40 Gig Duplex Multimode Applications, just one of the many ways that today’s data centers are cost-effectively achieving increased bandwidth in switch-to-switch fiber links. And when we say many ways, we literally mean many.
If you take a look at network application standards for balanced twisted-pair cable, there’s not that many to be concerned with. Sure, we had a methodical shift from 10BASE-T, to 100BASE-T, to 1000BASE-T, to 10GBASE-T that then jumped back to 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T to accommodate new technologies over the installed base and then forward again to the upcoming 25GBASE-T and 40GBASE-T standards, but all of this is nothing compared to fiber. And unlike fiber, there are few, if any, non-standard ways of deploying copper cabling.
Alien crosstalk is a relatively new measurement that’s widely misunderstood. I’m often asked why it’s an important measurement and if it’s required to be measured by the standards. Also misunderstood is the sampling criteria for alien crosstalk measurements, which are applied so that not all links have to be tested?

Six reasons certification is essential white papersmithponting
Economic turmoil is shining a bright light on the
value of services used by IT departments. Among
them are the services used to deploy and maintain
enterprise network infrastructure. Infrastructure
includes copper and fiber cabling, and it is the
foundation of the network. This white paper identifies the
specific benefits afforded by cable certification and
how much it pays back to the network owner.
Certification vs. qualification a closer looksmithponting
Used primarily by commercial contactors and network technicians, certification testing determines if a link is compliant with a specific category or Class of cable as determined by well-defined parameters outlined in ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 or ISO/IEC standard 11801 (ed. 2). For instance, certification testing will determine if your link is compliant with Category 6 or Class EA standards.
The standards review board of the Institute of Electrical
and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) approved the standard for 10 Gigabit/sec Ethernet over twistedpair copper cabling (10GBASE-T) on June 8, 2006. This paper provides an overview of the methods to measure and certify the performance of the installed cabling system for compliance with the requirements of 10GBASE-T, as well as with the draft specifications of Augmented Cat 6 (Cat 6A) or Augmented Class E (Class EA).
101 series understanding copper cabling’s balancing actsmithponting

It seems like just yesterday we were talking about spring
cleaning, and now we’re moving into the dog days of summer. And
it’s hot.
San Diego hit its highest ever recorded temperature this summer,
the Southwest experienced what meteorologists have dubbed the
“great 2017 heat wave,” and even New Jersey’s Newark airport
broke its 1973 record with a sweltering 97 degrees. Unfortunately,
experts predict that the expanse of hotter-than-average
temperatures will continue to grow in August—from the West
coast through the Plains and into parts of the Midwest and
Southeast.
While you may not think that cable testing can keep you cool, rest
assured that Fluke Networks has your back with its Versiv family of
cable certification testers and LinkWare™ Live cloud-based
service.

3. Beat the Heat with Versiv™ Cool Features
27-11-2017 3
When it comes to beating the heat, one of the great things about Versiv
certification testers is the record test times – almost three times as fast for Cat 6A and
four times as fast for fiber loss testing.
Not only does this let you get the job done faster, but the ability to upload results to the
cloud via LinkWare Live means you can head straight for the beach rather than delivering
results back to the office. Heck, you can even set your smartphone up as a hotspot and
upload results from your air-conditioned vehicle while you’re on your way.

With LinkWare Live, you can create test setups and
cable IDs remotely with browser-based ease – all from the
comfort of your air conditioned office. It’s a great way to
eliminate unnecessary time spent in the field, especially at
greenfield sites where the HVAC might not yet be up and
running.
And rather than wasting time searching for testers in the
heat, LinkWare Live let you track where your tester was last
synced and who used it.

Another great feature to help you stay cool is the built-in SmartLoop Assistant
available with the OptiFiber® Pro.
With SmartLoop, Tier 2 bidirectional testing can be achieved from the comfort of the cool
data center without having to move the OTDR to the other end. Simply send your junior
techcian out to the remote end to connect the loop, and SmartLoop will automatically
report the bidirectional average for the link.
And if you’re on your own, you can deploy multiple loops at the remote end to perform a
set of bidirectional tests without having to leave the near end in the coolness of the data
center.

While making your way to the job site through the
stifling heat is something you may not be able to avoid,
carrying less equipment and making one trip will certainly
ease the process.
With Versiv testers’ modular design that supports copper
certification, fiber optic loss, OTDR testing and fiber end-face
inspection, there’s no need to transport several different
testers to the job site. The DSX CableAnalyzer Series tester
can handle any twisted-pair cabling system whether it is a
Cat 5e, 6, 6A, 8 or Class FA, while CertiFiber Pro OLTS with
the OptiFiber Pro module merges Tier 1 and Tier 2 testing
and features a convenient quad module for testing both
singlemode and multimode fiber.

Other summer-time Versiv features that you may not have considered includes the testers’
rugged design with an easy-to-clean touchscreen. So, if you get sunscreen on your tester, just turn it off
and use a lint-free cloth moistened with water or mile detergent to wipe it right off.
And if you just can’t get cool while testing, the Micro USB port on Versiv testers is ideal for connecting
one of those little Micro USB fans. You can get one here at Amazon for just $6.99!
