Standards:
Compliant with proposed ISO (IEC WG9 Standard IEC61935-1) Level V accuracy requirements to
1000 MHz
Supports the complete suite of Resistance Unbalance standards needed for Power over Ethernet
(PoE) – IEC61935-1 & 11801-1-4, IEEE 802.3af, IEEE 802.3at, ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-C.2
Next generation balance drafts – IEEE 802.3, TIA TR42.7
Versiv Platform is Ready for Today's and Tomorrow's Jobs
Electrically centered plug design is compliant with proposed ISO (IEC WG9 Standard IEC61935-1)
Level V accuracy requirements to 1000 MHz with a future-ready design to support all hardware
upgrades
The DSX-5000 CableAnalyzer enables cable testing and certification for 10 Gigabit Ethernet deployments -
whether it is an existing Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6A or Class F
A
cabling system, the DSX tests to all industry
standards. The electrically centered test plug results in the Level V accuracy designation introduced with IEC
to support field testing to Class F
A
, 1000 MHz. The DSX exceeds the IEC Level V specification with less than
half the allowable crosstalk margin, assuring you of higher confidence in results over the full frequency range. Higher performance cabling
systems like Cat 6A have less tolerance to interference and less noise margin in general. Additionally complex Alien Crosstalk link-to-link
certification is simplified by integrating the measurement capability into each copper module for 10GBASE-T testing.
The DSX is the first field tester to support balance measurements including Transverse Conversion Loss (TCL) and Equal Level Transverse
Conversion Transfer Loss (ELTCTL). TCL and ELTCTL are important measurements found in the cabling standards. They define a minimum
performance for balance, the key parameter to help determine noise immunity. Industrial network owners/operators are especially interested in
this property as it is a key parameter to help determine electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Fluke Networks' DSX-5000 CableAnalyzer meets the Intertek (ETL) Certification in accordance with the IEC-61935-1 specifications for accuracy
Level IV, the draft accuracy Level V and in accordance with the ANSI/TIA-1152 specifications for Level IIIe.
