Ideal Industries' quality range of Lantek handheld testers are now available to rent as a result of a new partnership with leading equipment management company Livingston UK. The partnership enables end-users to meet their immediate short-term need for reliable network infrastructure testing without capital outlay. Ideal's Lantek 7G and Lantek 6 cable testers enable test and certification of copper and fibre data networks to all current Category 5e/Category 6 and future Category 6a/Category 7 requirements.

The Lantek 7G is the world's first cable tester fully compliant with the emerging Augmented Category 6 and Category 7/ISO F standards and the industry's only tester capable of certifying up to 1GHz.

Lantek 6 is fully compliant with Category 6/ISO E and has a frequency range up to 350MHz.

The testers enable the use of standard patch cords for Permanent link testing instead of bulky, expensive test adapters or personality modules while Lantek's fast autotest function enables improved productivity.

Livingston's test and measurement division offers dedicated solutions for reducing customers' cost base through the provision of value added services such as rental and leasing.

Livingston specialises in managing large inventories of test equipment and offers a wide choice of test equipment products from leading manufacturers across a broad range of technologies.

The company offers a wealth of knowledge and experience and a comprehensive and cost-effective portfolio of solutions world-wide.

Jason Conway, Inventory Support Manager, Livingston UK comments: 'We are pleased to be working in partnership with Ideal to make its Lantek products available for rental'.

'Ideal is making great strides in the industry with Lantek performing well against the competition'.

'We aim to offer customers the best possible solution to meet their requirement'.

'The inclusion of Ideal products to our portfolio gives our customers more choice and gives them access to a solution which will meet their current testing requirements, plus the emerging Augmented Category 6 testing and beyond'.

'Having a tool readily available that can assure the performance of today's cabling systems, while providing for future technology developments is a great advantage', explains Jason Holroyd, Sales Manager NW Europe, Ideal Industries.

'Our rental partnership with Livingston, means customers can benefit from the latest in LAN cable tester technology and certify networks up to 1GHz - from one week to several months - without having the financial outlay involved in purchasing a unit'.
