Qualification is a new category of testers designed to meet the emerging needs of network technicians who need to upgrade to higher network speeds as well as troubleshoot connectivity problems. Qualification testers determine if an existing cabling link can or can not support certain network speeds and technologies.

CableIQ mainframe, six Remote Identifiers, Intellitone Probe 100, and all adaptors necessary for qualifying and troubleshooting cabling in the enterprise environment, packaged in a hard FNET carry case; four AA batteries included.

–Qualifies - Sees if your existing cabling has the bandwidth to support voice, 10/100, VoIP or Gigabit Ethernet
• Troubleshoots - shows why existing cabling cannot support the network's bandwidth requirement (e.g. crosstalk at 11 meters)
• Discovers - detects what's at the end of any cable and displays device configuration (speed/duplex/pairing)
• Identifies unused switch ports that can be reallocated
• Graphically maps wiring configuration and shows distance to faults with Intelligent Wiremap
• Tests all copper cabling media: twisted-pair, coax, and audio cabling

Specifications:
