This means that companies are increasingly moving to 5GHz Wi-Fi to beat congestion and prevent performance from depreciating,&rdquo; explains Tim Widdershoven, Global Marketing Manager for IDEAL Networks. &ldquo;To meet this demand, we have introduced a new Dual Band USB Wi-Fi Adapter for LanXPLORER Pro.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>When combined with the latest free software updates from IDEAL Networks, the new USB antenna offers enhanced functionality to support testing for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi testing in accordance with the 802.11a\/b\/g\/n\/ac international test standard.<\/p>\n<p>The software updates for LanXPLORER Pro have also improved Wi-Fi testing capabilities and accuracy by enabling the tester to display new RF parameters such as signal strength (dBm) and Signal to Noise ratio (SNR). This makes the tester an effective, time-saving tool for Systems Integrators and IT Technicians that need to test all their devices have the Wi-Fi access they need.<\/p>\n<p>The multi-function LanXPLORER Pro not only tests <g class=\"gr_ gr_38 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Punctuation only-del replaceWithoutSep\" id=\"38\" data-gr-id=\"38\">Wi-Fi,<\/g> but also offers a wide range of network diagnosis capabilities, from testing the copper and <g class=\"gr_ gr_39 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling multiReplace\" id=\"39\" data-gr-id=\"39\">fiber<\/g> cable that serves the wireless access points, to troubleshooting problems in Ethernet devices that may be reducing network performance.<\/p>\n<p>The latest free software includes an extended list of <g class=\"gr_ gr_33 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace\" id=\"33\" data-gr-id=\"33\">wiremap<\/g> templates for common Ethernet cable types including Cat6A\/7A\/8 and non-Ethernet <g class=\"gr_ gr_41 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar multiReplace\" id=\"41\" data-gr-id=\"41\">cable<\/g>, such as Profinet 4, ISDN and Deutsche Bahn (German Rail system).<br \/>User-defined custom <g class=\"gr_ gr_34 gr-alert gr_spell gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim ContextualSpelling\" id=\"34\" data-gr-id=\"34\">wiremap<\/g> templates are also available for maximum versatility and accuracy when testing proprietary cabling systems.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Overall, the updated software and upgraded USB antenna provide a better user experience, alongside bug fixes,&rdquo; says Tim. &ldquo;This ensures that all the testing and troubleshooting needed for Wi-Fi and network installations can be done with just one tester as simply and efficiently as possible.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>One particular time-saving feature available with LanXPLORER Pro is the IDEAL AnyWARE&trade; app. Free to download, IDEAL AnyWARE allows Technicians and Systems Integrators to quickly and easily share the pass\/fail result that has been generated with clients.
