JDSU Validator Pro NT1150 Network LAN Ethernet Cable Tester

 JDSU Validator Pro NT1150
Building on the capabilities of the JDSU Validator and Validator-NT, the JDSU ValidatorPRO series of Ethernet Network Management Tools offers a complete solution to test copper and fiber Ethernet cables. The ValidatorPRO Ethernet speed certifier with integrated optical power meter and accompanying Plan-Um cable management software delivers the power to test both copper and fiber cabling, determine if cables can support Gigabit Ethernet, and perform troubleshooting for cable installations. The ValidatorPRO performs all tests offered by the Validator and Validator-NT, including speed certifying the data-carrying capabilities of copper Ethernet network cables up to 1 Gb/s by testing for noise in the network, detecting faults in the cabling wiring, and ensuring that cables can support the speed capabilities of active equipment.

To certify Ethernet speed performance of cable runs, the ValidatorPRO series of handheld testers conducts bit error rate (BER) tests by sending data packets down specified cable runs at defined data rates to check for errors at the maximum throughput of the link. The ValidatorPRO also reports on signal quality that can impact high-speed data transmission by measuring signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Skew measurements provide the signal time delay between pairs that can impact Ethernet data transmission. The ValidatorPRO also provides continuity testing that detects opens, shorts, miswires, split pairs, reversals, and high-resistance faults while accurately measuring distance to faults and total cable length.

The ValidatorPRO includes an integrated optical power meter that measures optical power at 850/1300/1310/1490/1550 nm on multimode or single-mode fiber to address an increasing number of Ethernet networks that now include optical links.



Features:

• Measures optical power on single mode and multimode fiber 
• Conducts BER testing to speed certify Ethernet data transmission speed up to 1000BASE-T (1 Gb/s)
• Measures SNR and skew to uncover impairments to electrical Ethernet data transmission
• Tests for opens, shorts, split pairs, miswires, and reversals and measures distance to opens and shortsﾗsupports all copper network, telco, and coax cables

Applications:

• Certify speed capability of electrical Ethernet cable runs to support 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet applications
• Ensure configuration and connectivity with active network devices
• Measure optical power and insertion loss
• Discover and display essential information regarding functionality of  802.11 b/g/n wireless devices
• Document network topology including moves, adds, and changes
