work Transmission Tester - SignalTEK II FO
SignalTEK® II tests the performance of voice, data, video and CCTV applications on SignalTEK II FO
10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet networks issuing a report to prove that your installed data
cables or networks can carry Ethernet traffic at full speed with no errors. Scan the QR Code to see the
SignalTEK II utilizes a method known as transmission testing to prove the performance SignalTEK II FO in action
of a network by sending real Ethernet data frames through the cabling and/or network
devices and comparing the received data with the transmitted data to determine the error
rate. This method stress tests the network to generate reports of real world performance
against an industry recognized standard.
Transmission testing is superior to qualification testing because it simulates the operation
of real Ethernet networks as opposed to qualifiers which try to determine if Ethernet might
work on cabling by running an un-calibrated measurement of physical parameters like
signal-to-noise-ratio and delay. While qualifiers do not test performance to industry stan-
dards, transmission testing proves performance to the IEEE 802.3ab Ethernet standard.
The capability of running data transmission tests on newly installed cabling and through
active Ethernet LANs (i.e. through Ethernet switches) makes SignalTEK II the perfect
choice for cabling installers, network administrators, system integrators, CCTV,
audio/visual installers or anyone requiring a comprehensive range of testing functions.
In addition to performance testing SignalTEK II incorporates numerous features such
as PoE/PoE+ detection and load testing, network diagnostics (connection speed, port
ID, ping, traceroute, hub blink) on IPv4 and IPv6 networks as well as cable tracing and
detailed wiremap diagnostic with TDR fault detection.
The internal memory of SignalTEK II allows it to store 2,500 test reports in XML format
which can be organized into customized job folders and copied to a USB flash drive for
viewing in any web browser.
Features Applications:
- Full Gigabit bi-directional load testing through hubs and switches - SignalTEK II is used to quickly prove that Ethernet will work correctly after
- Standard RJ-45 copper interface with options for SFP fiber optic interface
- Simulate network traffic generated by new IP devices to confirm network installation in cable installations such as SOHO or residential cabling where
cable certification is cost prohibitive or where the end customer does not
capacity before adding new devices like VOIP or CCTV require the cable manufacturer’s warranty programs.
- Verify connection speed up to 1000 Mb/s - Workstation has an extremely slow network access. SignalTEK II can be used
- Ping and traceroute tests verify LAN connectivity and internet access on IPv4 to run a simplified transmission test to check network performance
- A 100Mb/s LAN environment gets upgraded to 1 Gb/s. SignalTEK II can be
and IPv6 networks used to check if the existing (old) cabling can support up to 1Gb/s Ethernet
- Detect presence of PoE and measure voltage on each pair - An existing LAN installation gets upgraded to VoIP. Can be used to check if
- Advanced PoE/PoE+ load testing indicates maximum power to PoE devices both the cabling as well as the active components can support VoIP traffic
- Locate wiremap faults more quickly and accurately by testing every pin and - After MACs (Moves/Adds/Changes) of active devices, SignalTEK II can be used
to ensure minimum bandwidth requirements are met.
pair, detecting split pairs and identifying the distance to fault - In industrial Ethernet applications, SignalTEK II can be used to verify cabling
- Testing complies to the IEEE 802.3ab Gigabit Ethernet standard performance to 100Mb/s or Gigabit requirements
- Field replaceable RJ-45 contacts eliminate downtime from worn connectors - SignalTEK II can be used to test throughput of an industrial Ethernet LAN

SignalTEK CT - Cable Transmission Tester Scan the QR Code
If you install or maintain category 4 pair data cabling, SignalTEK CT allows you to generate to see the
PDF test reports that prove installed links run at Gigabit Ethernet transmission rates.
For installers, this means having a cost-effective way to demonstrate that the copper SignalTEK CT
cabling was installed correctly and is capable of supporting Ethernet applications. By in action
proving real world performance, SignalTEK CT confirms a professional job - reducing the
risk of call backs. SignalTEK CT also gives network owners the assurance that installed
cabling will support bandwidth hungry services like VoIP, IP CCTV and video streaming
