Our listing criteria are not fixed forever. When a test stops predicting real failures, it earns its place on the bench only by being replaced with one that does.

What we added

Cable-entry stress cycling on anything with a fixed cable, after repeated support cases pointed at the same failure mode. Firmware-update behaviour is now checked too: a product that cannot be updated safely is a product with a shelf life.

What this means for the catalogue

Some products we previously listed no longer meet the standard and have been withdrawn. We would rather have a smaller catalogue than defend a listing we no longer believe in.
