我們都知道福祿克DSX-5000的跳線適配器是非常昂貴的，同理福祿克DTX1800也是一樣的情況，為什么會有這種情況呢?小小的連接頭需要這么貴嗎？來我們以前來看看這篇文章。-來自《布線系統(tǒng)測試中遇到的三大疑問》

有些廠商推出了無適配器的綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試方案，原理是參照光纖綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試方法中設(shè)置參考值的做法。從理論上而言，的確有其獨到之處。

但如果我們從實際情況來考察的話，就會發(fā)現(xiàn)問題了。如果去看這些廠商的儀器說明書，他們會要求你使用好的跳線來進(jìn)行參考值的設(shè)置。那么什么是好的跳線呢？是按照ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1和 IEC61935-2 for Patch Cord Testing.標(biāo)準(zhǔn)測試過的呢，還是你自己認(rèn)為是好的跳線呢？而他們的銷售人員又在現(xiàn)場演示，使用受過損壞的跳線并不影響最終綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試的有效性。真的如此嗎？

首先，什么叫好的跳線？你去購買跳線，不管供應(yīng)商是誰，生產(chǎn)商是誰，他們都會告訴你他們的跳線是好的，然而事實是ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-A-4 超五類跳線標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是經(jīng)過無數(shù)次修改、現(xiàn)場認(rèn)證后才正式定案的，因為跳線的性能偏差非常大，不同廠商，不同批次生產(chǎn)的跳線在電氣性能上都有很大的差別，只有經(jīng)過認(rèn)證測試通過的跳線才能認(rèn)為是“好”的跳線。而且無適配器綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試方案在做參考設(shè)置時，只使用一根跳線，正式綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試時需要兩根跳線。那么第二根跳線的性能對整個測試結(jié)果造成的影響，怎么來認(rèn)證，怎么來保證呢？你會發(fā)現(xiàn)在現(xiàn)場演示的時候，廠商會針對第一根做過參考設(shè)置的跳線，而忽略第二根未被做參考設(shè)置的跳線。這根被隱形的跳線，就是一個漏洞。做儀器演示的時候，環(huán)境會比正式綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試的環(huán)境簡單，技術(shù)人員也喜歡用質(zhì)量較好的鏈路，保證兩次綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試都是通過的結(jié)果。這樣被測試者，測試者和旁觀者都皆大歡喜。但現(xiàn)場的情況往往更復(fù)雜，許多鏈路并沒有很大的余量來抵消不良跳線造成的影響。如果由于這根被隱形的跳線造成測試結(jié)果不通過，應(yīng)該由誰來買單呢？

出了問題就會造成圖中的推諉拉扯問題。當(dāng)然是我們都不希望的。

再簡單舉一個參數(shù)為例：特性阻抗。跳線允許的特性阻抗偏差在5%以內(nèi)，而鏈路允許的特性阻抗偏差在15%以內(nèi)。假設(shè)跳線的特性阻抗為95歐姆，鏈路的特性阻抗為115歐姆，兩者本身都在標(biāo)準(zhǔn)允許的偏差范圍內(nèi)，但兩者互相之間的阻抗偏差為20歐姆了，偏差達(dá)到20%，這樣造成的信號反射，能使測試結(jié)果理想嗎？由于跳線與鏈路之間特性阻抗不匹配造成的綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試不通過，應(yīng)該由誰來買單呢？

另外，如果使用特殊的適配器，那么連接入鏈路的只有一個RJ45連接，如果使用無適配器綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試方案，鏈路中就會多一個額外的RJ45連接。眾所周知，RJ45連接對于電纜的結(jié)構(gòu)是起到破壞作用的，RJ45水晶頭的性能尤其不穩(wěn)定，由于6類要求更加嚴(yán)格，市場上基本上買不到可以用于用戶自行制造跳線的水晶頭。如果使用無適配器測試方案，那么在兩個水晶頭之間由于NEXT, RL,FEXT等干擾信號反復(fù)疊加造成的影響，該如果對待呢？這可不是一個簡單的設(shè)置參考就能解決的問題。跳線水晶頭和儀器接口之間的耦合與正式要綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試的鏈路模塊之間的耦合，可以是完全不同的。這樣綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試，如果不通過，該由誰來買單呢？

聽上去又簡單又便宜的解決方案，在現(xiàn)實世界可就沒有看上去那么美了。使用性能完全不能確定的跳線，對綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試現(xiàn)場的情況完全無法認(rèn)證的測試方案，在現(xiàn)在業(yè)主對項目質(zhì)量越來越關(guān)注的情況下，簡直猶如盲人瞎馬，夜臨深池，是非常危險的。

上圖為福祿克專業(yè)的跳線適配器，看著是沒什么特別的，但是它使用的插座確實全球最好的，加上自己線路板的設(shè)計等等，無疑使它成為了最好的適配器。

使用福祿克DSX5000專用的跳線適配器適配器DSX-PC5ES，DSX-PC6S，首先它的綜合布線系統(tǒng)測試跳線是SSTP，特性阻抗為100歐姆±1歐姆，能在現(xiàn)場進(jìn)行校準(zhǔn)，在RL、NEXT、FEXT上保證其不會對測試結(jié)果造成不良影響，其次，它使用的測試模塊，內(nèi)部沒有電纜，完全是集成電路連接，避免了RJ45水晶頭NEXT的影響，這樣測試出來的結(jié)果才是正確、公正、科學(xué)的。

所以為什么它這么昂貴也就存在著道理了。
