Key Features
- Fast AutoTest for Instant Results
Run multiple network tests in seconds to verify connectivity, identify issues, and ensure proper configuration. Similar LinkRunner testers validate connectivity quickly using automated tests. - Copper Cable Testing & Validation
Quickly test Ethernet cables to identify: Opens, shorts, and miswires, Cable length and wiremap, Link status and signal quality - Wireless Capability
Optional Wi-Fi/Bluetooth adapters enable remote control* and connectivity for heightened flexibility.
- Network Connectivity Testing
Validate key network services and configurations: Link speed and duplex, DHCP and IP configuration, VLAN and switch connectivity, IPv4/IPv6 network availability - Switch & Network Discovery
Instantly identify: Connected switch name and port, VLAN configuration, Network environment details. This helps technicians troubleshoot faster without needing additional tools. - PoE (Power over Ethernet) Testing
Verify PoE availability and ensure connected devices receive proper power.
