Recorded AI-assisted source inspection; not independent human approval or hardware testing.

Face-view numbering/coding applies only to the documented connector forms. V44 does not infer wire colors, protocol support or electrical ratings for arbitrary products unless explicitly claimed.

Source inspection is separate from independent technical approval, rights clearance and hardware testing.
