Active Lan Testing LanScaper Network Tester
The new LanScaper Network Tester is the first in a new line of Physical Layer Network Management Devices. The LanScaper combines the functions of a cable tester and length measurement device with the capability to monitor and correct network problems connected with the physical layer and link conditions of the network.
- Identifies port services like Ethernet, ISDN, POTS and Token-Ring while reporting such crucial information as network speed, capability and location of switches and other network devices.
- Pinging function verifies connectivity to network devices and queries PC/NICs.
- Detects legacy Phantom Power, reports current and voltage capability of analogue telephone lines, identifies (maps) remotes while cable testing
- Conducts link tests to ID speed
- Verifies functional speed capability of terminated unconnected cable runs by sampling data packets between two LanScaper units, which exercises the run and reports the result
- Automatically accesses DHCP host and obtains network information
- Tests cabling configuration and verifies connectivity and length of run while conducting tests for opens, shorts, miswires, split pairs, and reversals
- Identifies HUBs, NIC, or auto MDI/MDI-X devices
- Blinks HUBs to ascertain connected configuration
- Displays advertised network speed/duplex
- Measures and reports any voltage on lines
- Wiremaps network connections with remote identifiers
- Generates multiple tone levels for signal tracing and cable identification
LanScaper is also available in a kit bundle including 8 office identifiers and a high sensitivity tone probe.
