LinkRunner ™ Pro & Duo Network Multimeters
The LinkRunner TM Pro and Duo Network
Multimeters empower frontline network
professionals to detect and resolve a
broader range of today’s link connectivity
problems. They acknowledge that frontline
technicians need more power than ever to
resolve problems like gigabit link perfor-
mance, 802.1X security conflicts, and Power
over Ethernet service, before escalating to
higher levels.
Target users
Enterprise IT departments with desktop or
network technicians assigned to PC or LAN
device connectivity troubleshooting.
LinkRunner Pro and
Duo advantages
The LinkRunner Pro and Duo are the only
link connectivity tools with the professional
capabilities today’s frontline techs need to
get their jobs done. Yesterday’s 10/100 link
tools are blind to more than half of today’s
most common problems. The LinkRunner Pro
and Duo give visibility to 90% of basic link
problems with gigabit negotiation, 802.1X
authentication, PoE verification, and CDP/
EDP/LLDP support. And if the LinkRunner
Pro or Duo can’t solve the problem, it will
generate comprehensive link status reports
to facilitate communication when routing
trouble tickets to higher levels.
