Datacom Textron Lancat System 5 Network Cable Tester & Talk Set
The LANcat Series are precision instruments for the certification and troubleshooting of LAN cable installations. With plug-in Performance Modules, the LANcat Series are capable of testing a wide variety of cable types including Category 5/Class D twisted pair, coaxial cable, and fiber optic cable.
All models are fully compliant with the testing requirements of the TIA/EIA 568A TSB-67 and provide Level II measurement accuracy when testing Category 5 Basic Links.
LANcat OneWay
The OneWay System performs one way nearend crosstalk (NEXT) measurements up to 100 MHz. Testing of NEXT from both ends of the link, as now required by TIA TSB-67 for compliant Category 5 installations, is accomplished by completing separate tests from each end. The test system includes a main handheld unit and an Active Remote (also called OneWay Remote).
LANcat TwoWay
The TwoWay System performs automatic bidirectional measurements of NEXT up to 100 MHz. The test system includes two LANcat TwoWay handheld units, each having a full graphic display and control panel. Either unit may be operated as a main or a remote unit for testing twisted pair links.
