Overview

Designed for Ethernet systems, TC500 measures t he speed and

performance on CAT3, CAT5e and CAT6 cables according to ANSI/

TIA/EIA-568-B and ISO/IEC 11801 to ensure the cable qualication.

Key Features

● Contains a main unit and a remote unit.

● Multi connector: one RJ45 connector for UTP/STP data cable
testing, one F connector for coax testing, one RJ11 connector for
telephone cable testing and two banana jacks for 2-wires testing

● Support International standard ISO/IEC 1 1801 and American
standard TIA/EIA-568-B

● Tone generator.

● Two additional functions: Ping and BER Test

● Store at least 100 results

● Toolbox software to analyze the results on PC
