Fluke Networks OptiView™ Integrated Network Analyzer

Cable Test

The OptiView analyzer, when connected to a network using copper

media, will automatically perform a cable test and provide you with the

cable length to the attached device even into a live switch or hub port.

When you select the Twisted-Pair detail screen, you will see Cable Wire

Pair, Impedance, Length to End, Length to Reflection and Status or

Anomalies (shorts, opens, split-pairs) displayed in a tabular format.

Additional information such as Receive Pair, Transmit Pair, Receive

Voltage and Polarity is also displayed. The OptiView analyzer even

automatically compensates for a cross-over connection, continues to

function, and informs the user of an MID-X connection. Various cable

types may be selected and measurement units can be displayed in feet

or meters.

The OptiView analyzer can also measure the power or power loss in

optical fiber links using the optional DSP-FTK Fiber Test kit.
