LanTEK IV-S: The Cable Certifier You Can Depend On

For network installation, speed, accuracy, and reliability are non-negotiable. Whether you’re certifying copper or fibre cabling, the tools you choose directly impact your productivity, profitability, and reputation. That’s why TREND Networks developed the Lan-TEK IV S: a powerful, future-ready cable certifier designed to meet the demands of modern infrastructure projects.

An essential solution for copper and fibre cable certification

The LanTEK IV-S cable certifier is engineered to deliver fast, accurate certification to comply with various standards.LanTEK IV-S provides a reliable solution for high-frequency testing up to 3000 MHz, making it suitable for enterprise-grade fibre and Cat 8 installations.

It also comes with the patented VisiLINQ™ permanent link adapters as standard. This enables field technicians to initiate testing and view the result instantly on the adapter in the palm of your hand – there is no need to touch the certifier. In noisy server rooms, this is a game-changer, replacing hard to hear beeps with clear visual status indicators.

LanTEK IV-S key benefits for installers:

Why do you need a certifier for installing cables? Here are a few of the ways the LanTEK IV-S cable testers can help solve common challenges out in the field.

• Speed: A 7 second test time (Cat 6A), one of the fastest test times in the world – means installers can move quickly through large jobs without compromising accuracy.
• Future proof investment: Certify links up to Cat8.1 and Cat8.2 and test up to 3000MHz providing room for compatibility with future ratified ISO/ TIA test standards.
• Label printer connectivity: – Generate labels with complex naming conventions that can be printed, helping to save time and reduce errors.
• Live wiremap: Speed up diagnostics by instantly seeing wiring issues without needing a full test cycle.
• Keep working without downtime: The Sapphire Care Plan keeps the cable certifier working smoothly, helping to maximise uptime, avoid disruption on the job and helping to reduce the cost of ownership.

LanTEK IV-S features

• Live wiremap: Live wiremap displays a real-time wiremap without the need to run a full Autotest.
• Easy setup: Setup job, configure copper and fibre tests and start testing from one screen.
• Resistance unbalance: Resistance Unbalance measured to ensure the cabling supports the latest PoE requirements.
• TCL/ELTCTL: TCL/ELTCL measured to meet balance requirements for optimal performance in noisy environments.
• Troubleshooting: Every Autotest runs Time Domain NEXT and Time Domain Return Loss tests which show the distance to the location of crosstalk events, hidden connectors, splices and other cable problems.

Together, these advanced features make LanTEK IV-S a powerful ally for installers working under pressure for enterprise-grade installations, data centres, and complex projects. By simplifying setup, enhancing diagnostic capabilities, and supporting the latest cabling standards, LanTEK IV-S helps reduce guesswork, accelerate workflows, and improve accuracy, even in challenging environments or on complex sites.
