Product Capabilities

Basic testers from Fluke give you a fast, easy way to verify LAN cabling and meet telecommunications standards. Installing and maintaining cable requires basic testing to verify connectivity and test for faults like opens, shorts, reversed, crossed, and split pairs.

With the rugged, portable, easy-to-use design built into the basic testers from Fluke, you'll have the right tool to match the job. And at the right price. With the Fluke 620 LAN CableMeter¬, you'll be able to test your cable connections on your own, as you install. The easy-to-use 620 tests the connections without requiring a remote connector or another installation expert at the other end of the cable.

Fluke's 620 CableMeter test tool is the only instrument on the market today that can test each connection "as you go," without the need for a remote unit termination or a connector at the other end of the cable.

Using a Fluke 620, the installer can immediately verify that end-to-end connectivity is defect-free, in all category UTP LAN cables and hardware, as well as STP, FTP, and Coax types. From one end, the 620 can detect (1) an open circuit and the length to this open; (2) a short, and the distance to the short circuit; (3) a split pair condition (showing the actual pairing detected).

If the cable plant requires "certification," the final performance test will not be impeded by miswires, shorts or opens. The installer will have corrected the problems immediately, saving troubleshooting and fault isolation time. By attaching Fluke's optional "cable identifier" to a completed LAN connection, the installer can use the Fluke 620 to verify the cable routing and cable label. In addition, using the cable identifier, the installer can detect two additional miswire possibilities: (1) a polarity reversal in a pair, and (2) transposed pairs.
