Details

The Fluke Networks LIQ-DUO/FPC3 LinkIQ Duo Cable/Wi-Fi/Network Tester comes with 3 Years of Fluke Premium Care. The LinkIQ Duo delivers trusted cable testing, powerful network visibility and analysis for Wi-Fi up to 6E. Cable test results are shown in a graphical format for quick understanding and troubleshooting. A powerful suite of tools makes it easy to verify or troubleshoot network device connectivity and understand the Wi-Fi environment. The large, color, gesture-based display makes techs productive instantly. It verifies cable performance up to 10 Gb/s and solve network connectivity problems. The LinkIQ tester validates cable performance using frequency-based measurements and a wire map of the cable under test. It also performs ping tests to verify connectivity and nearest switch diagnostics to identify key network issues and validate switch configuration—eliminating the need for another device. The LinkIQ Duo model adds Wi-Fi analysis to Wi-Fi 6E (where approved), including networks, channels, and access points plus warning of common configuration issues.

Cable Testing Users Trust

The LinkIQ tester is capable of measuring lengths up to 305 meters (1000 feet) and provides distance to faults such as opens, shorts, and unterminated cable. Using the remote ID allows for a complete wire map of the cable pairs which helps identify miswired and split pairs. The primary cable testing feature of LinkIQ tester is the cable performance test which qualifies the cabling bandwidth from 10BASE-T to 10GBASE-T (10 Mb/s up to 10 Gb/s). It performs these tests via frequency-based measurements. Using IEEE-standards-based measurements ensures that tested links meet performance requirements as opposed to transmission testers which only prove that the specific test devices can communicate over the link. Operators may set performance requirements from 10 Mb/s to 10 Gb/s for a simple pass/fail indication.

Network Testing Users Need

Along with the robust cable testing features, the LinkIQ tester also provides detailed information on the nearest connected switch and connectivity testing with IP ping. The LinkIQ tester negotiates with the switch to identify the advertised data rate (up to 10GBASE-T), half/full duplex identification, the switch name and IP address, port number, and VLAN info. The ping test verifies connectivity to devices on the local network or the internet and supports both IPv4 and v6. The address of the LinkIQ tester may be set up manually or through DHCP. Once set, the ping test runs as part of the Autotest when a switch is detected. Results of the ping test include identification and response time of each of four pings to the target, the DNS server, and gateway.

In-Depth PoE Testing

While Power over Ethernet makes installation of devices such as security cameras and access points simpler, a survey by the Ethernet Alliance of over 800 installers, integrators, and end users found that four of five respondents experienced difficulties in integrating PoE systems. Part of this can be traced to the fact that the IEEE offers three PoE standards, the term PoE is not registered, and there are a variety of non-standards-compliant implementations.

To simplify PoE installation and troubleshooting, the LinkIQ tester shows the pairs where power is provided, including the different power levels and pairs for dual-signature implementations. Further, the LinkIQ tester will actually place a load on the connection to ensure that the advertised power is actually being delivered by the switch across the cabling infrastructure. The LinkIQ tester has been certified by the Ethernet Alliance to IEEE-802.3 standards for reliable multivendor interoperability.

LinkWare PC Documentation

The LinkIQ tester provides complete documentation abilities for the tests it performs. Up to 1,000 results can be given descriptive names and stored and recalled in the tester. Test names and numbers automatically increment as each is saved: Annex B-1, Annex B-2, Annex B-3, etc. which saves time when testing cables in sequence. Report data may be exported to a PC for documentation purposes. The LinkIQ tester uses LinkWare PC, Fluke Networks’ reporting software which supports a variety of testers going back 20 years and is the industry’s leading reporting solution with tens of thousands of active users. LinkWare PC can be used to store the results as well as generate PDF reports.
