easy testing

I like the menu choices and easy test set up. The cable library lets you chose one you work with, and there is quite a few choices there to select from. When you are done with the set up, testing take only one push of a button. Sounds easy and it is easy. Oh, you can get reports too.

digital certifier

BERT - bit error rate test - on this certifier kit convinced me to buy tnc950 tester. I didn't need any fancy $10K certifier, but wanted to get more info than signal speed, while testing.. So far so good, the tester has been very useful, when we need test networks, after moving equipment around.

super fast

NetChaser works very fast, and even faster, if you are using multiple remotes. It gets the job done in less time, so I can service more customers. It's been a great addition to our business.

accurate

I measured length to a fault a few times, than tested it, when I pulled the cable. Instrment was extremely accurate, I guess TDR technology serves this purpose. So far, this tester has saved me a lot of time.

great lan cable verifier

We do both high end networks and verify lan cables for small networks. I found TNC950ar to be very useful, when we need to verify speed on cables, as well as integrity of data transmission. The Platinum Tools tester is easy to use, works fast and creates reports, so we can hand them over to our clients. Happy to have it in my tool bag.
