DATA NETWORK TESTER
▼ GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
SIGNALTEK™ is the most convenient Gigabit Ethernet tester presently available. To check whether a link is capable of supporting a
specific application, it transmits Ethernet packets along the link and measures its capacity in accordance with the Gigabit Ethernet
IEEE802.3ab standard – the best performance measure for any network.
• Exhaustively tests al data, video and audio applications.
• Runs tests including wiremaps and lengths of 1, 3 and 4 UTP/STP pairs and 6/59 series coaxial cable as
per standards TIA-568 A/B and TIA-570
• Runs a complete test with Gigabit Ethernet packets in around 35 seconds with 97% certainty
• Includes a TDR (Time Domain Reflectometer) for accurate cable run length measurements and identifies faults
in cable runs returning the distance to the open/short circuit
• The provided alligator clips are suited for testing household devices, loudspeakers, alarms, thermostats
and many other control systems.
▼ TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
• Qualifies Gigabit performance – as per IEEE802.3ab
• User selectable testing – test VoIP, Video IP and Data
• Gigabit Ethernet link testing in just 10 seconds
• Configurable monitoring duration to facilitate detection of intermittent faults
• AUTOTEST first detects what is connected to the far end of the cable, whether the SIGNALTEK remote unit,
an active unit or an open link, and then launches a suitable test suite
• User friendly graphic interface for quick, intuitive operation
• Internal test data storage – memory capacity for up to 20,000 tests
• USB interface – download data and read test results.
• Clear, full qualification report printout.
▼ SPECIFIC CHARACTERISTICS
