Test data from anywhere
Cable installers and IT technicians using the free Trend Networks AnyWARE app can share test data with colleagues or customers without leaving the jobsite. Field technicians can share difficult problems with colleagues not located onsite to improve productivity and minimize downtime. In addition, reports can be sent to clients as soon as the job is complete, demonstrating proof of performance. Thus, leading to more on-time job completions and reduced costs.
Save time and money using new troubleshooting features
Troubleshooting features such as Time Domain Return Loss (TDRL) and Time Domain Near End Cross Talk (TDNEXT) measurements help installers and technicians locate hidden connections, splices, and cable faults. The FiberTek III adapter includes a built-in visible light source to help visually pinpoint faults and locate fiber ports. These features can save a field technician hours that used to be spent troubleshooting a difficult problem.
Benefits of the new Permanent Link (PL) adapters
The RJ45 Permanent Link Adapter is smaller and designed to give superior resilience while still ensuring high performance and low cost of ownership. The lightweight, compact size and ultra-flexible cable allows it to be used in confined spaces without damaging the Permanent Link Adapter or the socket being tested. The new range of Permanent Link Adapters feature centered connectors which make them compatible with all brands of Cat 6A /Class EA cabling solutions cutting cost on testing equipment. In addition, Trend Networks has also developed field replaceable RJ45 contacts that eliminate the need to replace the complete adapter due to wear or damage reducing downtown and cost of ownership.
