Flexible Platform for a Variety of Testing Needs
The LinkRunner 10G has two Ethernet ports. The main test RJ-45 port supports Multi-Gig networks
from 10/100/1000Mbps to 2.5/5/10G to verify link speed, SNR, and duplex advertised and
connected. It can request and verify PoE power under load from up to 90W PSE’s. Alternatively, it
can interface to fiber networks via single/multi-mode SFP+ to test 1/10Gbps fiber-based Ethernet.
The second RJ-45 management port connects to 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet for remote control,
and conducts network scanning and tests where needed. It is also the port for cable testing.
In addition to fiber optic transceivers (SX, LX, SR, LR, ZX, singlemode, multimode, etc.) the SFP+
slot can be utilized with a variety of standards-based interfaces, such as TwinAx or other Direct
Attach Copper (DAC) cables, and vendor-specific transceivers.
As an Android-based device, LinkRunner 10G can use a variety of apps from the Link-Live app store
for a variety of uses. The USB-A port provides connectivity for added USB adapters and third-party
accessories such as printers, barcode scanners, fiber optic inspection cameras, and more. The
use of a USB-based Wi-Fi adapter (such as the Edimax AC1200 for 802.11ac/b/g/n/) provides for
connectivity and wireless testing using a third-party app.
The USB-C port is compatible with higher-power USB-C chargers, as well as external power-packs
for all-day portable use.

Overview
Introducing the new LinkRunner 10G, the most cost-eective solution for 10 Gig network
testing. LinkRunner 10G simplifies testing and configuration of copper and fiber Ether-
net networks, streamlining workflows by combining essential functions of installation
and triage in a single, ruggedized unit.
This next-generation Android-based tester delivers complete network validation
and troubleshooting, from the media (copper/fiber) to the application (layers 1 –
7), accelerating deployments, speeding problem identification, and improving the
eiciency and eectiveness of network installers and operations teams.
