A Network Audit confirms networks are installed according to governing body and/or customer standards. State-of-the-art network diagnostic tools are used to conduct installation and operational tests to validate system implementation and ensure performance is within standards outlined by TIA/EIA, ODVA, CNI or appropriate governing body. Installation testing validates the installation of new networks and prevents commissioning problems. Operational testing is an operational evaluation that tests system performance to ensure reliable communications and verify critical operating parameters. All test results and performance data are completely documented as a baseline for future reference.
- Network Audit consists of comprehensive installation and operational network tests, measurements and analysis based on governing body standards (ODVA, TIA/EIA, ControlNet International). The deliverable is a report documenting all findings, measurements, analysis, and remediation suggestions.
