Fluke Networks DTX-1800 Digital Cable Analyzer -
DTX-1800-M
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.
Fluke Networks
DTX-MFM
Fluke Networks' DTX-MFM set of two Fiber Modules adds
record-fast multimode fiber certification and fault location to the DTX
CableAnalyzer™ Series. Only Fluke Networks' DTX platform offers optional
on-board fiber modules so you'll never lose time searching for your fiber
adapter. Modules are easy to insert into the back of any DTX Series
CableAnalyzer. With a resident fiber module on board, fiber certification is
always ready when you are. Use the DTX-MFM Fiber Modules for certification of
50/125 and 62.5/125 multimode fiber. No other solution lets you switch between
copper and fiber with a touch of a button.
These modules deliver the
greatest time and cost savings. They accelerate testing through exclusive
technology and an easy-to-use interface. Press the Autotest button and you get
standards-compliant certification automatically. Test two fibers each at two
wavelengths, measure length and determine the pass or fail status -- all in
about 12 seconds. That's five times faster than other adapters. These fiber
modules let you test more fibers in less time, cutting testing costs and freeing
you up for other tasks. They can easily save more than 100 labor hours per
year.
DTX-MFM fiber modules use LED sources to ensure standards-compliant
certification of multimode fiber. Speed testing with TALK, FINDFIBER, MONITOR,
bi-directional and single fiber test features. Save, upload, manage and print
comprehensive certification reports using LinkWare PC software.
These
comprehensive Tier 1 certification solutions include loss, attenuation, length
and polarity measurements. You can validate fiber link performance and
installation quality. Measure optical loss at multiple wavelengths. And
bi-directionally test fibers at two wavelengths without swapping near- and
far-end units. Deliver Tier 1 fiber certification reports by uploading test
results to LinkWare PC software.
An integrated on-module visual fault
locator (VFL) makes troubleshooting simple link problems quick and incredibly
easy. The bright laser-driven VFL helps you locate many near-end fiber faults.
Also use it to locate fibers as well as verify continuity and polarity.
Exclusive integrated design ensures the visual fault locator is always on hand
when you need it.
Both modules incorporate 850-nm and 1300-nm LED sources
combined into a single output port, 850/1300/1310/1550-nm power meter and
integrated VFL.
