The LinkIQ is designed for advanced cable qualification and network testing. Its intuitive interface allows for quick assessment of cable performance and network connectivity.

Cable Qualification to 10 Gb/s

  1. Connect one end of the cable to the LinkIQ's RJ45 port and the other end to a remote identifier or network device.
  2. Select the "Cable Test" or "Qualification" option from the main menu.
  3. The LinkIQ will automatically perform tests for cable length, wire map, and qualification speed (e.g., 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T, 2.5GBASE-T, 5GBASE-T, 10GBASE-T).
  4. Results will be displayed as "PASS" or "FAIL" with detailed information on any detected issues.

Testing Switch and Network Connectivity

  1. Connect the LinkIQ to an active network port.
  2. Select the "Network Test" option.
  3. The LinkIQ will display information such as switch port speed, duplex settings, PoE (Power over Ethernet) voltage, and VLAN information.
  4. It can also perform ping tests to verify connectivity to network devices.

MicroScanner2 Cable Verifier Overview

The MicroScanner2 provides basic cable verification, including wire map, cable length, and identification of common faults like opens, shorts, and split pairs. It also detects PoE and media services.

Basic Cable Verification

  1. Connect the cable to the MicroScanner2's RJ45 or Coax port. For remote testing, connect the remote identifier to the other end.
  2. Press the "Test" button.
  3. The screen will display the wire map, cable length, and any detected faults.

The IntelliTone Pro 200 Probe is used in conjunction with the LinkIQ or MicroScanner2 (which can generate a tone) to trace and locate cables in bundles, at patch panels, or behind walls.

Identifying and Tracing Copper Cables

  1. Connect the LinkIQ or MicroScanner2 to the cable you wish to trace and activate the tone generation function.
  2. Turn on the IntelliTone Pro 200 Probe and select the appropriate toning mode (e.g., digital or analog).
  3. Move the probe along the cable path. The probe will emit an audible tone that increases in volume as it gets closer to the toned cable.
  4. Use the visual signal strength indicator on the probe for precise cable identification.

Pinpointing Twisted Pair and Coax Faults

Both the LinkIQ and MicroScanner2 provide capabilities to pinpoint faults:

  • Wire Map: Displays the connection status of each wire pair, identifying opens, shorts, and crossed pairs.
  • Fandrefesana ny halavany: Indicates the distance to a fault, helping to locate breaks or shorts along the cable run.
  • Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR): The LinkIQ uses TDR technology to precisely locate the distance to faults.
