Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Can I test end-to-end links and device-links with LanTEK IV-S?A: Yes, both with LanTEK III and LanTEK IV-S.
- Q: How many tests can I run with a set of PL tips?A: According to standards, an RJ45 plug must withstand 750 insertions which is achievable for a quality patch cord. The tips of the LanTEK IV-S PL adapters are designed to withstand at least 2000 insertions under normal circumstances.
- Q: How often do I need to replace the PL adapters itself?A: TREND uses a high quality and very durable but still lightweight cable. Under normal use, this part does not need to be replaced during the lifetime of the product.
- Q: Channel adapters are sold as single pieces, PL tips are sold as pairs – why?A: When using channel adapters, it may happen that only one adapter gets damaged by a faulty patch cord. Therefore it makes sense to only offer single adapters. However, PL tips will only suffer wear due to a large number of insertions which most likely will always happen on both adapters , therefore both tips most likely will wear out same time. Therefore offering the tips as pairs makes more sense.
- Q: Does LanTEK IV-S have any troubleshooting functions?A: Yes. First of all, LanTEK IV-S features a wiremap with distance to fault to locate severe faults. Secondly LanTEK IV-S offers TDX and TDRL to locate crosstalk and return loss faults along the link. This enables users to locate even small issues.
- Q: Is the LanTEK IV-S troubleshooting able to locate shorts between a pin and the shield of shielded cables?A: Yes. First of all, the wiremap distance to fault indicates the approximate location of a shield. Secondly, a short between a pin and shield causes a huge return loss fault. The location of this fault can be accurately displayed by the TDRL feature.
- Q: At consolidation point links, is LanTEK IV-S able to distinguish if a crosstalk error stems from the jack at the end of the link or from the consolidation point?A: Yes. With the TDX feature, the user can see where there is a crosstalk problem along the cable. If the consolidation point contributes too much crosstalk, it will be visible in TDX. The user than can disconnect the extension from the consolidation point and re-test the link to verify if the link than meets specs or not.
Customer reviews
Once you go blue, you never go back.
Honestly the best cable certifier money can buy. Quick tests, easy to change testing standards after the test is done and allowing just about anyone to be able to operate with projects already setup in AnyWARE cloud.
LanTEK-IV - Cardio for Cabling
Fun take – you’ll be running thru certifications – you’ll burn more calories and get in better shape using the 7 second cert from TREND. I can’t say enough good about this device – from the 7 second certifications, the remote access capabilities, ez swap heads to certify different cable types, on the cloud ecostructure Anyware for reporting (FREE!) is amazing. This is a huge trade up from my previous yellow certifier – and the very few times I’ve needed support I was completely floored by how amazing and responsive the team was. I am really looking forward to replacing my green network analyzer w/ BLUE soon!
Twice as fast as any certifier we've used before.
A key challenge for us is that our customer base in the education sector requires projects to be turned around in the short timeframe of the 6-week summer holiday period. When there are thousands of data points to test, every second counts.
By switching our fleet to LanTEK IV-S cable certifiers, it’s now possible for the company to test a Cat6A link in as little as 7 seconds – twice as fast as any certifier our team has used before.
LanTEK IV-S
Such a great product. We show up to sites to certify cables and IT managers almost flock to see this “new tool”. They are amazed by the speed and the seemless functions.
LanTEK IV-S
Fast and easy to use!
