1 Introduction
SIGNALTEK is a unique cabling tester that offers the user the
ability to test the performance of a wide range of installed cable
system characteristics. With SIGNALTEK, the user can verify
network performance, troubleshoot connectivity problems, and
view network speeds to determine if the installed cable provides
the necessary performance to support desired applications.
? SIGNALTEK is easy to use. It offers any installer the ability to
perform cable performance tests and rapidly locate
connectivity issues.
? SIGNALTEK will generate performance reports that can be
viewed and printed with any web browser. No special software
is necessary making it easy to view, print, and share test data.
? SIGNALTEK can test cable links in one of three conditions:
Terminated with the SIGNALTEK remote device; Active LAN
Links that terminate to a hub, switch, or PC; or to a single-
ended link that is not terminated to a device at the opposite
end.
? SIGNALTEK uses two test handsets that allow full-duplex
performance testing of cables at Ethernet speeds of up to 1
Gigabit per second (1Gbps).
Cable Qualification Testing
Most cable installers are familiar with TIA-568 or ISO-11801
cabling standards. All cable certification instruments such as
IDEAL LANTEK Certifiers perform measurements to these
standards at frequency ranges specified by these standards. The
concept behind certification testing is that the cable is being tested
to provide support for any communications protocol that operates
in a given frequency range. For some installations this level of
