Ideal
SIGNALTEK-FO Multimedia qualification Tester
|

Click for larger image |
Product Overview:The SIGNALTEK-FO is the first and only tester to qualify
both copper and fiber-optic cabling to IEEE 802.3 standards.
All in one unit that's less than the price of an optical
test set.
With its compact design and soft over-molded sides, the
SIGNALTEK-FO fits comfortably in your hands. The
easy-to-navigate user interface enables multimedia Gigabit
qualification with multimode and single mode capability. You
can also perform Bit Error Rate testing and decibel (dB)
loss measurements of optical links. Plus, storing and
printing qualification reports for copper and fiber jobs are
simple using internal memory or USB thumb drives.

SIGNALTEK-FO Capabilities beyond the typical
Qualifier
SIGNALTEK-FO offers all of the existing capabilities of the
standard SIGNALTEK Qualifier such as Gigabit Ethernet
Qualification, test storage and reporting, and active link
testing and adds the powerful capability of fiber optic
Qualification. Traditional power meter/light source
kits only measure the attenuation of fiber optic links. As
Gigabit Ethernet is becoming the standard for backbone and
zone fiber optic cabling, attenuation tests alone may not be
enough to guarantee error-free performance.
SIGNALTEK-FO’s Bit Error Rate testing, adds assurance
that fiber optic links can actually support high-speed data
in accordance with
IEEE 802.3ab standards.
|
- Multimode and single
mode capability |
| -
Available in 850nm and 1300nm wavelength
configurations |
| - Measure cable attenuation with a dynamic range of up
to 20dB |
|
- Guarantee link operation at 1Gbps within IEEE error
tolerances |
In addition to cable performance qualification, SIGNALTEK
can be configured to run for several minutes or hours at a
time. While stress testing critical network links,
SIGNALTEK transmits hundreds of Gigabits of information
across the network while looking for dropped packets. This
monitoring mode allows SIGNALTEK to be used to isolate
intermittent network problems that are difficult to detect.
Adopting the latest generation of Gigabit Ethernet
technology, IDEAL’s innovation brings the best performance
to this new class of affordable testers.
