Ratings disagree by 2 steps

The engine rates this unit higher than the imported list, usually because the list de-tiers units that lack independent testing while the engine records that as low confidence instead.

How the tier was reached

  1. MISSED

    Tier A - reference classspec 12.9

    • Primary conversion stage: Legacy primary topology (DF)
    • Minor rail regulation: Minor rail regulation is not documented
    • Independent laboratory evidence: Independent testing explicitly reported as absent (Not recommended since no proper testing exists, and numerous issues exist with other Segotep units that were tested.)
    • Minor rail regulation: required evidence is missing
    • Too many failed criteria for this tier (2)
  2. MISSED

    Tier B - strong mainstreamspec 12.10

    • Primary conversion stage: Legacy primary topology (DF)
    • Minor rail regulation: Minor rail regulation is not documented
    • Independent laboratory evidence: Independent testing explicitly reported as absent (Not recommended since no proper testing exists, and numerous issues exist with other Segotep units that were tested.)
    • Minor rail regulation: required evidence is missing
    • Too many failed criteria for this tier (2)
  3. MISSED

    Tier C - adequatespec 12.11

    • Minor rail regulation: Minor rail regulation is not documented
    • Independent laboratory evidence: Independent testing explicitly reported as absent (Not recommended since no proper testing exists, and numerous issues exist with other Segotep units that were tested.)
