System and method to reconcile cabling test results with cabling test configurations
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A cable testing system, comprising:
- at least one testing device that performs cabling testing pursuant to a cabling testing configuration that defines testing routines to be executed by the at least one testing device to perform a cabling test; and
a cloud-based server device that is in communication, via the Internet, with the at least one testing device, the server device including;
a database that stores a first cabling testing configuration;
a processor that executes computer instructions to;
send the first cabling testing configuration from the database to the at least one testing device to cause the at least one testing device to use the first cabling testing configuration to configure the at least one testing device to execute the testing routines for the cabling test;
receive cabling test results from the at least one testing device in response to the at least one testing device generating test signals pursuant to the testing routines being executed by the at least one testing device;
determine that the received cabling test results are non-compliant results by determining if there is a difference between the first cabling testing configuration sent to the at least one testing device and a second cabling testing configuration used by the at least one testing device to perform the cabling test; and
provide, to a remote user, access to the received cabling test results.

Abstract
A cable testing system and method including at least one testing device configured to perform cabling testing pursuant to a cabling testing configuration and a cloud-based server device configured to couple, via the Internet, to the at least one testing device. The server device includes a database configured to store one or more cabling testing configurations and a processor configured to send one or more cabling testing configurations from the database to the at least one testing device such that the at least one testing device performs a cabling test pursuant to the cabling test configuration received from the server device.

9. A cloud-based computer server, comprising:
-
a memory that stores instructions; a database that stores one or more cabling test configurations that define testing routines to be executed by a cable testing device to perform cabling tests; a processor disposed in communication with said memory and database, wherein said processor upon execution of the instructions performs actions to; send a first cabling test configuration of the one or more cabling test configurations, via the Internet, from the database to the cable testing device to cause the cable testing device to use the first cabling test configuration to enable the cable testing device to execute the testing routines for a cabling test; receive cable test results from the cable testing device in response to the cable testing device generating test signals pursuant to the testing routines being executed by the cable testing device; determine whether the cable test results are compliant with the first cabling test configuration based on a comparison between the first cabling test configuration sent to the cable testing device and a second cabling test configuration used by the cable testing device to perform the cabling test; and provide, to a remote user, access to the cable test results. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13)
