ABOUT THIS MANUAL
Testing and measuring key data link operations is necessary to determine
the speed capability of individual CAT 5/6 links within installed LAN
network systems. With the push of a button the GT1000 GigTest
automatically measures key metrics like Signal to Noise Ratio and Skew
as well as generating a Bit Error Rate Test (BERT) that generates data
packets for transmission and receiving along a link to see both error
generation and/or noise interference effects that may impede data ow at
the highest possible level.

▪ Tests can be saved to GigTest when not linked and uploaded to app
when linked.
▪ WiFi connectivity to Smart Phone.
▪ Android App for controlling, uploading in real time, naming and saving
results.
▪ iOS (Apple) App for controlling, uploading in real time, naming and
saving results.

FEATURES

To ensure safe operation of the GigTest™, follow these instructions.
WARNING! Do not attach to AC power.
The GigTest is designed for use on
unenergized cabling systems.
Connecting the GigTest to live AC power
may damage it and pose a safety hazard for the user.
Failure to observe these warnings
can result in severe injury or death.
Always Check Connectors First
Poorly terminated RJ45 connectors have the potential to damage the
jacks on the GigTest™. Always visually inspect an RJ45 connector before
inserting it into the tester. All the contacts should always be recessed into
the plastic housing of the connector.
Only insert RJ45 connectors into the RJ45 jack in the tester. Plugging
6-position connectors (RJ12/RJ11) into the 8-position jack on the tester
may damage the outer-most contacts of the jack unless the connector is
specically designed for that purpose.
