Fluke Networks LIQ-100/FPC3 OffersDesigned to provide trusted cable and network testing professionals need to do their jobs, this tester validates cable performance (up to 10 Gig) using frequency-based measurements, provides distance-to-fault information, plus a wire map of the cable under test. Additionally, it performs ping tests to verify connectivity and nearest switch diagnostics to identify key network issues and validate switch configuration, eliminating the need to use another device.
Features
Cable testing you trust
This tester is capable of measuring lengths up to 1000' (305 m) and provides distance to faults such as opens, shorts, and unterminated cables. Using the remote ID allows for a complete wire map of the cable pairs which helps identify miswired and split pairs. The primary cable testing feature is the cable performance test which qualifies the cabling bandwidth from 10BASE-T to 10GBASE-T (10 Mb/s up to 10 Gb/s). It performs these tests via frequency-based measurements. Using IEEE-standards-based measurements ensures that tested links meet performance requirements as opposed to transmission testers which only prove that the specific test devices can communicate over the link. Operators may set performance requirements from 10 Mb/s to 10 Gb/s for a simple pass/fail indication.
Network testing you need
Along with the robust cable testing features, this tester also provides detailed information on the nearest connected switch. It negotiates with the switch to identify the advertised data rate (up to 10GBASE-T), half/full duplex identification, the switch name, port number, and VLAN info.
In-depth PoE testing
While Power over Ethernet makes the installation of devices such as security cameras and access points simpler, a survey by the Ethernet Alliance of over 800 installers, integrators, and end users found that four of five respondents experienced difficulties in integrating PoE systems. Part of this can be traced to the fact that the IEEE offers three PoE standards, the term "PoE" is not registered and there are a variety of non-standard compliant implementations as well.
To simplify PoE installation and troubleshooting, this tester displays the pairs where power is provided, including the different power levels and pairs for dual-signature implementations. Further, it will actually place a load on the connection to ensure that the advertised power is actually being delivered by the switch across the cabling infrastructure.
LinkWare™ documentation
This cable/network tester provides complete documentation abilities for the tests it performs. Up to 1000 results can be stored in the tester with descriptive names and recalled. Test names and numbers automatically increment as each is saved ("Annex B-1", "Annex B-2", "Annex B-3", etc.) saving lots of time when testing cables in sequence.
Report data may be exported to a PC for documentation purposes. This tester uses LinkWare™ PC, a reporting software that supports a variety of testers going back 20 years and is the industry’s de facto reporting solution with tens of thousands of active users. LinkWare can be used to store the results as well as generate PDF reports.
Modern design and interface
Like today's smartphone, this tester is based on a gesture-based touchscreen that takes up nearly all the faces of the instrument. This makes it easy to display a large amount of information and provides clear, simple controls such as sliders and a full keyboard. While it can perform a variety of tests, the user interface is simplified so that there is a single TEST function. The results displayed are determined solely by what is connected to the unit’s single "RJ-45" connector. A single USB-C port provides connectivity to a computer for future software updates, reporting, and charging the unit. It is designed and tested in our environmental lab to ensure its ruggedness including vibration, temperature, humidity, electrostatic discharge, and drop tests.
