Description
Overview
GAOTek Networks Cable Qualification Tester is a multifunctional tester for all home cabling media that troubleshoots all coax, data, and voice wiring. See network infrastructure problems quickly. Isolate cabling problems from network problems. Save time and money by escalating fewer trouble tickets. See existing cabling bandwidth. A four-second test quickly determines if your existing cabling can support voice or 10 or 100, VoIP or Gigabit Ethernet. Troubleshoot cabling performance faults. Determine why the existing cabling plant cannot support the desired network speed (e.g., connection fault at 7 feet). Free up to 10 % or more of your switch ports. Discover what is at the far end of any cable, whether it is an open cable, a PC, an analog phone, or switch. Detect speed/duplex mismatches in a matter of seconds. Determine a PC’s duplex settings and compare settings to the connected switch – all from one location. Isolating faults easier with intelligent wiremap. Test for wiremap, length, shorts, split pairs or opens, and graphically see the distance to specific pin faults, such as “pin 1 break at 37 feet.” Locate cables and wires with superior accuracy. Breakthrough IntelliTone™ digital signaling technology precisely locates cables in even the most chaotic wiring closet. Empower frontline techs with an easy-to-use tool. Intuitive user interface and graphical display guides users with little or no training required. Avoid disputes over cause of network problems. Save results or upload them to a PC with Cable IQ Reporter Software (included).
