Description
The DSX Cable Analyzer Series copper test solution enables testing and certification of twisted pair
cabling for up to 40 Gigabit Ethernet deployments and will handle any cabling system whether it is a Cat 5e,
6, 6A, 8, or Class FA and I/II. Certifying a cable is one part of a process that starts with system design
and ends with system acceptance. The faster that process goes, the more profitable you’ll be. Unfortunately,
there are a lot of things that slow the process down – setting up the tester incorrectly, testing to the
wrong limits, waiting for skilled technicians to analyze and troubleshoot failures, misinterpretation of
results, and producing test reports that customers cannot understand.
As part of the Versiv cabling certification product family, the DSX Cable Analyzer Series provides accurate,
error-free certification. In the installation business, there are multiple teams, varying media types, and
multiple testing requirements. The difference between being profitable or not is just a few percentage
points. The DSX certifies copper cabling, complies with all standards including Level VI/2G accuracy, making
jobs easier to manage, and getting to system acceptance faster. It’s not just for the expert technicians and
Project Managers. Individuals of various skill levels can improve the set-up, operation, test reporting, and
simultaneously manage diverse projects.
Unique Features
- Versiv enables users to accomplish more than ever with a cable tester, by accelerating every step of the testing process
- LinkWare Live cloud service lets the Project Manager remotely set up the testers, monitor job progress and even locate tester from any smart device
- ProjXâ„¢ management system eases tasks from initial set-up of a job to system acceptance. It eliminates redundant steps, and ensures that all tests are completed correctly the first time, and every time
- Taptiveâ„¢ user interface puts advanced data analysis and easy set-up and operation at the fingertips of technicians of all skill levels
- LinkWare PC management software provides unmatched analysis of test results and professional test reports
- The DSX reduces the time required to fix cabling faults with dedicated diagnostics, a simple test that locates the problem
Standards
- Compliant with ANSI/TIA-1152-A Level 2G and proposed standard IEC 61935-1 Ed. 5 Level VI field tester accuracy requirements to 2000 MHz
- Supports the complete suite of Resistance Unbalance standards needed for Power over Ethernet (PoE) – IEEE 802.3bt, ANSI/TIA/EIA-568, ISO/IEC 11801 series documents
- TCL and ELTCTL measurements compliant to IEC 61935-1-1 (Draft)
- Screen continuity along path of cabling
