The LinkIQ™ Cable+Network Tester is the test solution for verifying cable performance up to 10 Gbps and resolving network connectivity issues. LinkIQ validates cable performance using frequency-based measurements and provides distance-to-fault information along with a cable map of the cable under test. The LinkIQ also diagnoses the nearest switch to identify key network issues and validate the switch configuration without the need to use another device. Other features include analog and digital toning, port blink, 802.1x authentication, remote office locators, and the ability to manage results via LinkWare™ PC.
