Series Specifications
Note: For availability of additional adapters that allow testing to other performance
standards, different cabling types, or fiber optic cabling, contact Fluke Networks.
The selected test standard determines the test parameters
and the frequency range of the tests
* The battery will not charge at temperatures outside of 0° C to 45° C (32° F to 113° F). The battery charges at a reduced rate between 40° C and 45° C (104° F and 113° F).
