7 LAN Cable Certifier

■ First cable tester fully

compliant with emerging
Category 7/IS O F standards,
with a frequency range up
to 750 M Hz

■ Full Category 7/I S O F

AutoTest, with graphs in
approximately 35 seconds

■ Advanced link adapter

method provides more
versatility and reduces cost
of ownership

■ Built in TDR ready for

copper and fiber

■ First fiber accessory for a

copper tester that traces
fiber runs, displays distance
to and magnitude of events

LANTEK 7 is the first LAN cable tester capable
of certifying installations up to 750 MHz,
exceeding draft Category 7/ISO F specifica­tions. Certifying these installations has
required a combination of cable testers and
network analyzers. Now you can certify these
systems up to 750 MHz simplifying the task
while reducing costs.

LANTEK 7 utilizes an advanced link adapter
method to reduce cost of ownership.
LANTEK 7 comes with a pair of Category 7/
ISO F channel adapters. These channel
adapters fit into the case of the unit and are
locked in place. This creates a stable and
repeatable testing platform while eliminating
bulky adapters extending beyond the end of
the unit. By simply plugging in a Category 7/
ISO F reference patch cord to the channel
adapter, you can now perform Category 7/ISO F
permanent link testing. Should the plug ever
wear out the patch cord is replaced rather
than the entire assembly reducing lifetime
cost of ownership.

Among the LANTEK 7 accessories are the
the industry’s most advanced fiber options,
FIBERTEK and TRACETEK. FIBERTEK
enables loss, length, bi-directional testing
over two fibers, and talkset over fiber capa­bilities for 850 and 1300 nm Multimode and
1310 and 1550 nm Singlemode fiber.

TRACETEK is the first fiber accessory
for a copper tester that will trace
a fiber run, locate distance to
events along the fiber, and
measure the magnitude
of the event. This capa­bility can eliminate the
need for a more costly
OTDR in campus
network environments.

■ Display unit comes with

1/4 VGA color screen,
remote unit comes with
two-line black and white
LCD display

■ Serial and US B ports for

uploading tests and
upgrading firmware

■ Two full-function PCMCIA

slots accept compact

flash memory and

provide for future

capabilities

Certifying these higher

performance systems has

required a combination of

cable testers and network

analyzers. Now you can certify

these systems up to 750 MHz

with LANTEK 7, simplifying the task

while reducing costs.

LANTEK®7 LAN Cable Certifier

The LANTEK 7 display unit comes with the brightest 1/4 VGA color screen in
the industry. The remote unit has a two-line black and white LCD display to
enhance communications, and can initiate an AutoTest to increase productivity
in one-person operations. Both units have an overmolded edge to function in
the harshest environments.

Along with serial and USB ports, LANTEK 7 comes standard with two full-function
PCMCIA slots to accept compact flash memory and provide for future capabilities.
This allows for virtually unlimited test storage with graphs keeping your unit in
the field. LANTEK 7 comes with LANTEK Reporter PC software that can upload
stored tests from the serial or USB ports, or compact flash memory and can
create brief, summary, or detailed certification reports for your clients.

Don’t limit yourself to Category 6/ISO E. LANTEK 7 allows you to certify the
most advanced installations.
