IDEAL Networks unveils data center cable certification software

IDEAL Networks, a specialist in network testing, installation and management solutions, has released an update to its IDEAL DataCenter (IDC) software that allows data center cabling professionals using the company's LanTEK II and FiberTEK FDX cable certifiers to more easily manage their test data, and to generate certification reports in three simple steps.

According to the company, the IDEAL IDC software "improves on the sometimes-cumbersome task of importing and organizing test data by using a streamlined workflow and simplified user interface. Familiar ribbon toolbars, similar to Microsoft Office products, organize functions into logical groups, easing the process of generating certification reports. Professional reports are generated in 3 simple steps: 1. Enter the job details; 2. Select the logo; and 3. Select the tests."

With capacity for more than 10,000 tests per job, IDEAL says its IDC software supports projects of any size -- from residential systems to enterprise-class networks. Creating PDF reports with the software is a simple two-click process, says the company, and a complete project is contained in one file, further simplifying submittal of projects to clients and cabling manufacturers. In addition, IDC works with most third-party cloud data services such as Dropbox and Google Drive.
