Fluke Networks DTX-1800 Digital Cable
Analyzer
The DTX CableAnalyzer™ Series from Fluke Networks is
the testing platform for today and tomorrow. This revolutionary platform
significantly reduces total time to certify by improving every aspect of the
testing process. It all starts with a Cat 6 Autotest time that’s several times
faster than other testers and fiber testing that’s five times faster. DTX also
gives you a complete solution for 10 Gig testing over copper, Basic Tier 1 fiber
testing, and Extended Tier 2 fiber testing with the industry’s only modular
OTDR. The DTX makes you ready for whatever the world throws at you – today and
tomorrow.
Significantly reduces total time to
certify.
The DTX Digital CableAnalyzer Series gives you a
complete solution that streamlines every aspect of the certification job from
setup, to record fast testing and troubleshooting, to reporting results to the
customer. All told, DTX can save you considerable time and money up to four
hours a day.
Cat 6 certification in 9 seconds
The
DTX-1200 and DTX-1800 perform Cat 6 certification tests in just 9 seconds in
full compliance with industry standards and with superior accuracy. That’s
several times faster than existing testers. This incredible speed means you can
test up to 170 more links in an eight-hour shift.
Troubleshoot
faults twice as fast
When a link fails, the DTX Series provides
quick, easy-to-understand directions to identify the point of failure (distance
from the tester) and the possible reason(s) for the failure.
These
directions not only tell you the problem, but also identify corrective actions
your test technicians can take to solve the problem quickly all without having
to consult the project manager. Instead of spending time executing trial and
error corrections – and re-testing to find out whether the problem has been
resolved the technician knows exactly where to look and what to do to fix the
failing link. Even if only two percent of the cables certified in one shift fail
Autotest, you’ll save as much as two hours of labor time per day of
certifying.
Fast even when you’re not testing
The
DTX Series isn’t just a faster way to test. It cuts setup and reporting times.
Its ease-of-use lowers training time. Extended battery life means you can do
more on a single charge. And a bright color display, ample memory, and built-in
talk set all contribute to overall productivity while enhancing the user
experience. This all adds up to save you time and money every
day.
Enhance the power of DTX, Verify network service
availability
Improve the services you offer your customers with
the DTX CableAnalyzer and Network Service Module (DTX-NSM). Simply plug the
DTX-NSM module into the back of the main unit and you’re ready to verify network
service availability and link connectivity up to 1 Gigabit Ethernet. Verify if a
link is active, identify its data rate, duplex capabilities and whether power is
available for PoE. Then document all the network connectivity tests executed as
an integrated part of the cable certification documentation provided by
LinkWare.
Test cabling with Midspan PSEs for POE
applications
Midspan power sources block DC power from traveling
to the Ethernet switch or other active equipment in the wiring closet. This
prohibits Wiremap tests of the link with conventional DC test methods. The DTX
Series CableAnalyzer has the capability to test cabling using AC signals. This
unique feature allows full certification to ISO and TIA standards where Midspan
Power over Ethernet supplies are used.
Certify patch cord
performance
Test patch cords to ensure optimal network
performance with greater channel throughput and greater system margin. Attach
the optional DTX Patch Cord Adapters (DTX-PCU6S) to the DTX main and remote
units and you’re ready to certify patch cord performance to TIA Cat 6/5e
specifications and also ISO class D/E.
Test coaxial cable quickly
and easily
Extend the capabilities of your DTX CableAnalyzer to
test coaxial cabling systems including legacy data cabling (such as 10BASE-2 or
10BASE-5 Ethernet) and video distribution coaxial cabling. Test coax cable
length, propagation delay, cable (input) impedance and insertion loss as a
function of signal frequency.
