# TIP Active Base Cable Cleanup

Date: 2026-05-10 07:38 UTC

## Scope

Continued TIP verification after the price queue was closed. Focus: remove DAC/AOC/Breakout/Twinax/direct-attach cable products from the active transceiver-module verification base and add a 10Gtek datasheet source verifier.

## Live Work

- FS.com `/c/` category/landing rows were quarantined; price `needs_research` returned to `0`.
- DAC/AOC/Breakout/Twinax/direct-attach quarantine:
  - first pass quarantined `879`
  - embedded-SKU pass quarantined `57`
  - remaining active DAC/AOC-like rows: `0`
- Added `verify:10gtek:datasheets`.
  - source: `https://www.10gtek.com/transceivers`
  - extracted `58` official PDF links
  - matched `9` existing 10Gtek rows
  - wrote `9` datasheet URLs and `9` details evidence records
- Scraper package built on Erik.
- `tip-scraper-daemon` restarted after pg-boss queue was empty.

## Health Snapshot

- active products: `16236`
- price verified: `10851`
- price status: `public_price=10851`, `no_public_price=5385`, `needs_research=0`, `ambiguous=0`
- image verified: `11602`
- details verified: `16005`
- fully verified: `10599`
- competitor status: `matched=10838`, `ambiguous=5`, `needs_research=5393`

Follow-up Cisco official-page batches:

- first large batch added `5` official Cisco images
- second batch added `0` images
- latest health moved to `image_verified=11611`, `details_verified=16006`, `fully_verified=10600`
- Open competitor status dry-run found `0` new candidates after the batch

GAO Tek follow-up:

- quarantined `16` obvious non-optic/category artifacts such as Handheld/Wireless/Marine/Cabling/Family pages
- latest active product count is `16236`

## Interpretation

The active product base is cleaner and no longer counts cable/breakout rows as transceiver-module verification debt. Remaining gaps are dominated by OEM/catalog image availability and competitor state, not public price research.
