TestPro overview

The changing landscape of enterprise cabling demands more from the test equipment you rely on. TestPro Multifunction Cable Certifier is a versatile solution purpose-build, to quickly and easily ensure infrastructure readiness across smart building technologies in a cost effect way. TestPro offers the most expansive feature set of any other test equipment available to provide you with test capability across broad network typology and test function. TestPro can support all of your testing needs that span installation to implementation through the use of hot swappable test adapters.

Instalation

Certify twisted pair cable for CAT5e – CAT 8 Level IIG

TestPro supports testing and certification for network deployments up to 40 Gigabit Ethernet for Cat 5e, 6, 6A, 7, 8 or Class I/II cabling system. The electrically centered test plug assures the Level 2G/VI accuracy required to support field testing to Cat 8 / Class I/II, and actually exceeds the 2000 MHz requirement, to offer a 3000 MHz platform. As a result, you can feel confident in results over the full frequency range test standards require both today and in the future.

TestPro’s certifier Autotest is a one-button operation that performs all tests required for ANSI/TIA 1152-A bi-directional standard compliance, in addition to other parameters such as TCL (Transverse Conversion Loss). TestPro also provides comprehensive DC measurements including both pair-to-pair and in-pair resistance unbalance tests to pre-qualify that the link should support Power over Ethernet. The Autotest also reports distance-to-fault plots based on NEXT and Return Loss time-domain measurements as well as a shield discontinuity TDR giving technicians an easy-to-understand graphical representation of the location of a problem. All of the tests are performed in 6 seconds for CAT6A channel or permanent link.

Certify Singlemode and Multimode fiber optic cable

TestPro’s fiber optic measurements provide Tier-1 certification per industry standards as well as customizable limits for both Multimode and Singlemode Fiber Optic premises cabling.  Additionally, these adapters include an integrated VFL to provide a quick indication of a break in the wire.  Unique to TestPro, the fiber adapters have DC resistance and voltage measuring capabilities, providing self-contained solution for testing hybrid powered fiber cables.

Implementation

For those responsible for the deployment and/or troubleshooting of end devices, such as digital lighting, wireless access points, security cameras, environmental sensors and more, TestPro provides you with an extensive test suite to assure infrastructure readiness to support these technologies. Often times, these devices require a certain level of link speed, and even PoE to power the device. TestPro provides you with the ability to validate link speed while under both traffic and PoE load including printed reports of this test, which can be used to expand your service offering. Additionally, TestPro can do a network discovery to see all devices on the network and report on switch detail, including slot/port/VLAN, aiding in configuration validation.

Unique Platform Flexibility

  • See complete test results at both ends
  • Initiate Autotest from either Main or Remote end
  • One main can talk to many remotes
  • Can be split up to become stand-alone testers for the following:
    • Network connectivity testing include switch/slot/port/VLAN detail
    • Wireless connectivity and signal strength testing
    • Multigigabit link speed testing
    • PoE load testing
    • Fiber optic loopback testing

Advantages

  • Copper Cable Certification Testing – TestPro CV100 has a sophisticated RF measurement engine, able to support up to 3GHz frequency range. TestPro supports all mode combination parameters (including TCL), and exceeds the level 2G accuracy specifications for copper certification testing.
  • Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) – TestPro supports testing of SPE cable with hot swappable test adapters
  • Fiber Optic Certification Testing – TestPro’s fiber optic adapters offer fast and accurate tier 1 certification testing, including supporting bi-directional test. Unique to TestPro, the fiber adapters have DC resistance and voltage measuring capabilities, providing self-contained solution for testing hybrid powered fiber cables.
  • Fiber Optic End Face Inspection – Dirty connectors are most common cause for fiber optic link underperformance. The fiber inspection feature of TestPro allows you to check the cleanliness of fiber end faces in both installation and troubleshooting environments.
  • Scalable and flexible – The TestPro 100 comes with optional detachable adapters that enable a wide variety of test functions to cater to the needs of today’s network infrastructures, as well as to easily scale to cater for future requirements.
  • Autotest feature – Autotest is the easiest way to ensure that cabling links will support the desired network rate. It is also fast at 6 seconds including all optional test parameters such as TCL, ELTCL, DC Resistance Unbalance, and more.
  • PoE testing – The AD-NET-CABLE adapter provides comprehensive testing for verifying PoE deployments. It supports all PoE standards including 802.3 af/at/bt and UPoE for reporting of PSE configuration and full load testing with reporting of Current/Wattage/Voltage. In addition, it also allows for sustained loading of the PoE source over longer periods to identify hard to find intermittent power drops, through external loads.
  • Multi-gig Link Speed Qualification – TestPro is capable of validating a link to ensure Ethernet can be supported at 1/2/5/5/10GBASE-T. It can perform SNR measurements while under traffic and PoE load, ensuring confidence that a cabling link will support the desired network rate.
  • Network Connectivity Testing – TestPro can connect to a live Ethernet network through the 10/100/1000 network interface connector, or via WiFi (Edimax EW-7822ULC Wi-Fi USB adapter required). Once connected, TestPro will auto-discover connected devices on the network. You can Ping any other device to verify connectivity with traceroute and measure latency.
  • Wi-Fi Testing – TestPro can auto-discover all 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi SSIDs and their associated RSSI values (received power level). This is helpful in discovering Wi-Fi “dead zones” and checking Wi-Fi connectivity with optional Edimax EW-7822ULC Wi-Fi USB Adapter.
  • Up to a 5-Year Warranty – All TestPro CV100’s come with a full 2-year standard warranty against manufacturer defects from date of purchase. Upon product registration within 90-days of purchase, AEM will extend that warranty to 5-Years.
