Fluke releases VDV cable tester

A Fluke Networks product story

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Oct 6, 2008

Fluke Networks has launched the Micromapper Pro VDV cable tester, with a one-button Quick Check test that reduces installation time and callbacks.

Quick Check runs a full wiremap test for twisted pair cabling that shows the type of fault (miswires, reversals, split pairs, and breaks) plus the distance to the fault.

This reduces test time and speeds troubleshooting when faults are detected.

Quick Check is easy to use and its results easy to interpret, so Micromapper Pro can be used across a wider range of user skill levels than similar testers.

Micromapper Pro also eliminates the need for adapters when testing twisted pair and coax (F) cables.

This saves time, with faster transitions between voice, data, and video cable testing, and eliminates costly replacement of lost adapters.

Analogue toning is included, which allows installers to locate and isolate wire pairs during installation and eliminates the need for a separate toner in the installer's toolkit.
