How to identify fake and shoddy cables in medical equipment?
Drug counterfeiting and insurance fraud have attracted the attention of the industry in recent years. The quality of medical equipment is often ignored by the public, and fake cables may cause serious harm to patients' health.

The demand for cables that meet safety and performance standards is increasing, and counterfeit cables are becoming more common. These cables are sold in disguise, but actually do not meet the key performance and standards required by the medical equipment, resulting in poor performance, invalid system guarantee, and damage to the equipment due to unqualified characteristic requirements.

Because operation and network performance are key factors for the survival of patients. The risk is also particularly high. Engineers need to ensure the successful design and installation of the network, which requires high-quality cables.

Counterfeit cables often do not meet key safety and performance standards; Therefore, the use of these cables in medical devices will increase insecurity. Formal cables must comply with UL rating, which means that the cables have been inspected, tested and certified by the occupational safety and Health Administration (OSHA), meeting the highest safety standards in the industry.

All cables must pass the fire safety test and be listed in the UL list. Cable failure may cause fire. Fake cables have not been tested and have poor fire resistance, so they are not suitable for use in medical equipment.

There are still some legal consequences to consider. Even if it is not known that these parts are counterfeit, it may still be liable. Such violations of building codes may lead to potential litigation and even crimes, and the company may face fines, as well as allegations of fraud or breach of contract.

How to identify fake and shoddy cables?
Although it is not easy to identify fake cables, there are some features that can help find them. Such as forged marks and labels on packages; These marks can include cable legends indicating the marks verified by Intertek (an inspection product testing and certification company) in the UL list of components, or the marks conforming to tia568-c specification. While these characteristics appear to be legitimate, they must also be traceable.

In order to ensure the authenticity of the cable, three things need to be paid attention to:

 • A valid electrical testing laboratory (ETL) mark with the manufacturer's control number. The manufacturer should have ready-made test results, and the company should check and verify the ETL list through Intertek's website.

 • The company can verify the UL file number through UL's online certification. These file numbers are displayed next to the UL tag. UL's credit card holographic authenticator can help verify its unique holographic tag.

 • CCCA also provides a free cable inspection mobile application, including how to check the authenticity of tags and instructions.

In order to avoid being the victim of fake and shoddy cables, connect medical equipment safely, efficiently and legally. It is very important to select a reputable cable manufacturer and train network engineers, buyers and system installers on how to identify counterfeit products.
