Network Turn-Up and Gigabit Ethernet Troubleshooting

Features and Benefits • Automatic Network Discovery simplifies the documentation of network resources and stations • Autotest application performance testing allows for quick isolation of protocol, configuration and resource performance problems. • Supports 802.3ab and 802.3z compliant 10/100/1000BASE-T copper and 1000BASE-SX/-LX Gigabit fiber SFP interfaces. • Optional remote control via web browser allows troubleshooting, monitoring, and reporting from central office, eliminating costly dispatches • Full-screen, color LCD displays clear and complete results • Touch-screen interface and online manuals enhance ease of use.

Agilent’s WireScope Pro tester provide a fast Category 6A cable and fiber certification. The new Professional Network Test option enables
LAN cabling installers and solution integrators to turn up Gigabit speed networks with one set of testers. It allows network administrators
to troubleshoot networks across layers 1 to 4, and to locate network issues and bottlenecks at any line rate up to 1 Gbit/s. Pre-defined
performance tests and online manuals make the WireScope Pro very easy to use. Expert users can assist technicians in difficult cases
through the optional remote control and web based access to test results.

Quickly Diagnose and Troubleshoot Network Problems

WireScope Pro Professional Network Test contains a complete arsenal for troubleshooting tools from Ping and Trace Route to and statistical analysis of the traffic breakdown. With just a few clicks, the instrument allows to identify 10/100/1000 Mbit/s Ethernet utilization, broadcasts, pause frames, collisions, and errors, or pinpoint incorrectly assigned subnet masks, misconfigured servers, and duplicate IP addresses.

Automatic Network Discovery

Once connected, the WireScope Pro automatically surveys the network and displays all devices in a switched network, providing instant visibility of IP and IPX devices on different subnets, along with their MAC addresses, network addresses, and names. Using the Network database populated by the network discovery function, the asset of network stations and services can be documented; rogue stations and unauthorized services can be identified.

Automated and Simplified Network Service Testing and Pre-Qualification

WireScope Pro Autotest uses a unique technique to objectively measure and benchmark the performance of network application servers, and produces detailed reports on the performance metrics. This feature is useful for both troubleshooting and network turn-up.

Connectivity to a Range of Protocols and Physical Media

Enabling Professional Network Test on the WireScope Pro activates the unit’s built-in network test ports. The instrument is equipped with an RJ45 test port for 10/100/1000 Mbit/s over copper and an SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) interface for Gigabit Ethernet over fiber. A USB-powered media converter for 100BASE-FX and a range of SFP Gigabit Ethernet optical transceivers are optionally available.
