Fluke Networks DTX 1200 Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 Digital LAN Cable Analyzer
Description
The Fluke DTX Series Cable Analyzers were designed with your time in mind. They significantly reduce the time it takes to certify your network when compared with competitors' analyzers. The Fluke DTX testers will test and certify your CAT 6 cable in 12 seconds. Most other testers take over 30 seconds to perform the same test. This translates to 85 extra certifications before lunch! Not only do these analyzers test for problems, they also suggest potential actions to correct the problem, saving even more troubleshooting time.
The DTX 1200 has a maximum testing bandwidth of 350 MHz, allowing all tests to be done in just 12 seconds in full compliance with industry standards.
The DTX 1800 has a maximum testing bandwidth of 900 MHz, which will allow you to test video distribution, Class F, CATV and 10 Gigabit Ethernet cables.
Unit's internal memory stores up to 250 graphical Cat 6 test results or up to 2000 text reports. In addition each unit includes LinkWare software for link to your PC. Software allows you to edit, view, print, and archive your data. You can then export the data to a PDF.
Features
- Increase productivity from day one. Intuitive interface means your techs spend less time in training and more time testing
- Zero to certify in 9 seconds. This unheard-of Cat 6 test speed lets you move from link to link three times faster than with previous testers
- Level IV Accuracy. Get the most accurate test results in the shortest possible time
- 350 MHz frequency range. Prepares you for future applications, such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Class F and CATV
- Advanced time-saving diagnostics. Pinpoints the location of a failure and is the only tester that suggests corrective action, saving troubleshooting time
- Record-fast fiber certification. Certifies a pair of fibers in 9 seconds with DTX single mode and multimode fiber modules
- 12-hour battery life. Gives you the power to complete any job.
- Save time managing results. From setup to reporting, LinkWareTCable Test Management Software's simple user interface and time-saving features increase productivity
