The
newest Fluke Networks DTX tester series working in a 900 MHz frequency range.
DTX also gives you Level IV Accuracy.
The DTX Digital
Cable Analyzer Series gives you a complete solution that streamlines every
aspect of the certification job - from setup, to record-fast testing and
troubleshooting, to reporting results to the customer. All told, DTX can save
you considerable time and money - up to four hours a day.
Cat 6
certification in 9 seconds
The DTX-1200 and DTX-1800 perform Cat 6 certification tests in just 9 seconds
- in full compliance with industry standards and with superior accuracy.
That's three times faster than existing testers. This incredible speed means
you can test up to 170 more links in an eight-hour shift.
Troubleshoot
faults twice as fast
When a link fails, the DTX Series provides quick, easy-to-understand
directions to identify the point of failure (distance from the tester) and the
possible reason(s) for the failure. These directions not only tell you the
problem, but also identify corrective actions your test technicians can take
to solve the problem quickly - all without having to consult the project
manager. Instead of spending time executing trial and error corrections - and
re-testing to find out whether the problem has been resolved - the technician
knows exactly where to look and what to do to fix the failing link.
Fast even
when you're not testing
The DTX Series isn't just a faster way to test. It cuts setup and reporting
times. Its ease-of-use lowers training time. Extended battery life means you
can do more on a single charge. And a bright color display, ample memory, and
built-in talk set all contribute to overall productivity while enhancing the
user experience. This all adds up to save you time and money every day.
Record-fast
fiber certification
The DTX fiber modules accelerate testing through exclusive technology and an
easy-to-use interface. Press the Autotest button and you get standards
compliant certification automatically - test two fibers, each at two
wavelengths, measure length, and determine the pass or fail status - all in
about 9 seconds. Our fiber modules let you test more fibers in less time,
cutting testing costs and freeing you up for other tasks. You can easily save
more than 100 hours per year.
Test copper
and fiber with a touch of a button
Only the DTX platform offers optional on-board fiber modules - so you'll never
lose time searching for your fiber adapter. And fiber certification is always
ready when you are. No other solution lets you switch between copper and fiber
with a touch of a button.
Certify
multimode and singlemode fiber
DTX fiber modules use LED and laser sources to ensure standards-compliant
certification. Save, upload, manage, and print comprehensive certification
reports using LinkWare PC software.
Find faults
faster
An integrated on-module visual fault locator (VFL) makes troubleshooting
simple link
problems fast and incredibly easy. The bright laser-driven VFL helps you
locate many nearend fiber faults and can be used to verify continuity and
polarity. Our exclusive integrated design ensures that the VFL is always
on-hand when you need it.
900 MHz frequency for a future-proof investment
The top-of-the-line DTX CableAnalyzer - the DTX-1800 - supports testing up to
900 MHz. This extended bandwidth supports the ISO Class F links, as well as
emerging standards like 10 Gigabit Ethernet over twisted-pair cabling. It also
enables you to certify links for other applications, such as video
distribution over twisted-pair cabling.
Accuracy every time, over time
The DTX Series testers are more accurate than any cable certification tester
on the market today. Overall accuracy is a function of two critical factors:
tester accuracy level - which assures that the tester delivers the correct
PASS/FAIL results - and Permanent Link adapter technology, which is also a
function of the quality and characteristics of the test adapters that
interface to the link-under-test.
Tester accuracy exceeds Level IV
Until now, testers have been designed to meet accuracy Level III. The more
demanding accuracy Level IV specification has been proposed in ISO/IEC
(international standards) to test Class F links to 600 MHz. DTX testers exceed
this new specification, assuring you of higher confidence in results over the
full frequency range.
Permanent Link adapter technology eliminates false failures
Commercial patch cords - including Cat 5e/6 and Cat 7 - used in Permanent Link
testing applications can cause costly false failures by failing a good link
and adding unnecessary hours of troubleshooting and repeat testing. The daily
wear associated with coiling, uncoiling, and storing patch cords under rough
field conditions causes invisible degradation over time and contributes to
Return Loss, which is often the cause of a FAIL. At Fluke Networks, we put
accuracy first. That's why we developed high-performance Permanent Link
Adapters instead of using commercial patch cords. Our proprietary technology
ensures superior accuracy and stability required for measuring Return Loss,
while increasing the accuracy of all other measured test parameters.
