Triplett Real World LAN and Cable Certifier, RWC1000K2(CS)

Triplett Real World LAN and Cable Certifier, RWC1000K2(CS), 749536542638

The Triplett/ByteBrothers Real World Certifier (RWC) and Network Tester is break-through technology that brings cable and network certification and testing to a whole new level of reality. Unlike traditional certifiers, the RWC uses digital circuitry and digital testing techniques to perform its tasks. It works with UTP and all Ethernet devices. These tests include traditional TIA568 cable verification (length, opens, shorts, split pairs, wire map) for UTP (unshielded twisted pair). Plus RWC's own sophisticated crosstalk, timing and cable parameter tests that yield a UTP cable's category (CAT3, CAT5, CAT5E, CAT6) and speed capability (10, 100, 1000 MB)! And if you wish, the RWC can use your own network devices (hubs, switches, PCs) to test UTP cables with real live data! And, the Real World Certifier analyzes links and data from all types of hubs, switches and PCs. It performs both single sided tests for advertised speed (10, 100, 1000 MB and duplex) and inline tests (between devices) for negotiated speed. The engine of the RWC circuitry is capable of 1 nanosecond resolution. It also works with coax cable and can test for the length of the cable, opens, shorts, wiremap and distance to any faults that might exist. As with UTP, coax can be toned with the toner feature and test results can be stored for later printing in the RWC's flash memory. The Real World Certifier has two levels of verification/certification. RWC Level 1: Performed with the Main Unit and the Remote Probe, Level 1 tests the cable for length; opens, shorts, split pairs and distance to the fault; wire map (displays cable wiring); Both NEXT and FEXT (crosstalk tests); propagation delay (time to transit cable); skew (time delay between pairs); cable category (CAT3, 5, 5E, 6); and speed projection (10, 100, 1000 MB). RWC Level 2: includes all Level 1 tests plus takes advantage of a real live data source (hub, switch or PC) to test for attenuation and device type. The result is RWC Level 2 speed certification of both the cable and the LAN device. Note: no RWC certification tests are performed on coax cable.
