The LinkIQ™ network and cable tester is the ideal choice for certifying cable performance up to 10G and troubleshooting network connectivity issues. LinkIQ™ validates cable performance using frequency measurements and indicates the distance to the fault (up to 305 meters) along with the wiring map. This is achieved with Remote ID. Additionally, it identifies serious network and switch configuration issues by performing diagnostic checks (on the nearest switch), eliminating the need for another device. 

The instrument's extra features include: cable toning, Port Blink, 802.1x standard certification, Remote Office Locator, and the ability to manage results from a computer via LinkWareTM PC software.

LinkIQ™ is capable of measuring lengths up to 305 meters and displaying the distance to a fault such as an open circuit, short circuit, or unterminated cable. Using Remote ID provides the ability to present a full wiring map that allows for the identification of incorrect pairs. 

The main feature of LinkIQ™ is the cable performance test in a range from 10 Mb/s to 10 Gb/s (10BASE-T to 10GBASE-T) through frequency measurements according to IEEE standards. Thus, LinkIQ™ confirms that the measured links meet the required standards, unlike conventional transmission testers that simply confirm device communication through the link.
