Cable Verifier
Raising cable verification to a higher power
High power vision into voice/data/video cabling
For more than a decade, cabling
installation and maintenance technicians
have relied on MicroScanner to verify
terminations and troubleshoot continuity
faults. A lot has changed in the cabling
world since the original MicroScanner was
introduced. Industry economics require
that installations be done fast and
accurately with no callbacks. And converg-
ing voice, data, and video technologies
have given rise to new requirements for
service testing and multimedia support.
MicroScanner
2
recognizes these trends
and presents a much-needed revolution to
the way testing is done. It streamlines
every aspect of the verification job.
From its time-saving user interface and
integrated multimedia support to its
expanded service detection capabilities,
MicroScanner
2
gives technicians the power
to perform their jobs faster and more
accurately than ever.
High power vision to verify voice/data/
video cabling and services. That’s Network
SuperVision.™ That’s Fluke Networks’
promise to you.
Reduce test time and user error
Yesterday’s cable verification testers force
users to toggle between different modes
(up to four) to view all test results. This not
only slows the test process, but also causes
user frustration and error. MicroScanner
2
has
defied this convention by displaying key test
results – wiremap, pair lengths, distance to
fault, cable ID, and far-end devices – all on
one screen.
Eliminate awkward test adapters
Tired of losing or breaking all the adapters
needed for testing the various voice, data,
and video media types? MicroScanner
2
makes
these adapters things of the past with built-
in RJ11, RJ45, and coax support. Both the
main unit and the far-end identifiers can be
used to test telephone jacks, Ethernet jacks,
and CATV outlets right out of the box.
Rule out service problems fast
Today’s communications technicians have
more problems to deal with than just the
cabling. They have to rule out a whole host
of cable and service issues before determin-
ing the cause of a connectivity problem. Is
there telephone voltage? What’s the polarity?
Is there a switch at the far end? Is PoE
available? MicroScanner
2
gives technicians
high power vision to verify today’s most
common voice, data, and video services.
Locate elusive cables in seconds
MicroScanner
2
features built-in IntelliTone
digital and analog toning to precisely locate
virtually any cable or wire pair, regardless of
work environment. Use digital mode to locate
high-grade data cabling (Cat 5e/6/6a) in
bundles, or at switches, patch panels, or wall
outlets. Or, use analog mode on voice-grade
cabling (Cat 3 and below), as well as coax,
security/alarm, and speaker wiring.
Repair or replace tools less often
With all the abuse you put your tools
through, you can’t afford for them to be
delicate. MicroScanner
2
features a rubber
wrap-around holster that makes it the right
tool for even the toughest jobs. Toss it into
your toolbox. Drop it from a ladder. It can
handle it. Plus, it now comes standard with
a vinyl carry pouch for enhanced protection
and convenience.
