LinkRunner

Smart Wired Network Tester

The LinkRunner

G2 simplifies network validation and configuration of copper and

fiber Ethernet networks, streamlining workflows by combining essential functions

of installation and triage in a single, ruggedized unit. Accelerate deployments, speed

problem identification, and improve the eiciency and eectiveness of network

operations with this next-generation Android-based tester. The LinkRunner G2

contains all test features available in the LinkRunner AT but features an intuitive

design that runs Android-based apps with smartphone-like features.

• Discover nearest switch name and port information via CDP/LLDP/EDP and verify

link speed/duplex and connectivity to TCP/IP network with AutoTest

•

Validate 90W Power-over-Etherent (PoE), complex VLAN and DHCP configurations

in one AutoTest - useful during IoT, VoIP and Wi-Fi deployment

•

Install and run preferred Android-based apps for speed tests, device configuration,

and workflow management with smartphone-like features

•

Automate reporting and enable collaboration with result upload and management

via Link-Live Cloud Services

Overview

DATA SHEET

Discover Nearest Switch and VLAN

The LinkRunner G2 uses the IEEE Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), along with the Cisco

and Extreme Discovery Protocols (CDP and EDP) to display the nearest switch model, slot, port

and VLAN configured.

The LinkRunner G2 displays critical nearest switch information including:

• Switch name and model

• Switch chassis, slot and port#

• Switch IP Address

• VLAN’s supported

• Duplex and speed (actual and advertised)

• Signal Strength

• Connection (MDI or MDI/X)

• PoE voltage and power (actual and test limit)

• Graphical representation of power on pairs

TruePower™ PoE loaded test for up to 90W LinkRunner G2 is the first field tester able to validate loaded PoE performance by drawing actual power up to 802.3bt 90W across all four pairs. The device loads the circuit to stress switches, cabling, and patch panels, all while measuring the voltage and pairs being used. LinkRunner G2 uses the TruePower™ test to validate the power delivery before installing IoT connected devices to ensure a smooth deployment.
PAGE 3
Comparing to LinkRunner AT The LinkRunner G2 has 6 key values over that of LinkRunner AT: 1. Complete PoE validation: functionally test voltage, draw power, up to 90W from PSE’s, and measure voltage from PoE Injectors. 2. Verify complex network readiness for Wi-Fi access point and VoIP phone deployment: automatic VLAN visibility in AutoTest, and support for DHCP Options 43, 60 and 150 3.

Programmable AutoTest Profile for IoT Projects Some IoT systems installations require conducting network services tests at various stages of deployment. The necessary AutoTest Profiles can be created, such that the LinkRunner G2’s will test for the specific configuration needed at each installation stage, providing clear Pass/Fail documentation of the deployment.
