Product Description
The Platinum Tools TNC950AR Net Chaser is an outstanding professional device for testing Ethernet networks. It offers a comprehensive solution to assess and certify the data - carrying capacity of Ethernet network cables up to 1 Gb/s. By detecting network noise, identifying cable wiring faults, and ensuring cable compatibility with active equipment speeds, it provides reliable network performance evaluation. The Net Chaser's advanced discovery feature gives you a clear view of the network layout and interfaces between active components like servers, switches, and routers. All data is collected, stored, and ready for reporting. Key features include speed certification to IEEE 802.3 standards, cable testing according to TIA568A/B, port discovery, PoE detection, IPV4 support, ping functionality, link light for port location, verification of DHCP connectivity and DNS, discovery of CDP and LLDP protocols, network mapping, VLAN discovery, traceroute, bit error rate test, signal - to - noise ratio measurement, length measurement of cable pairs, detection of cable termination issues, verification of cable continuity, saving and uploading test results, tone generation, and support for multiple ID remotes.
Using the Platinum Tools TNC950AR Net Chaser is straightforward. First, connect the tester to the Ethernet cable you want to test. Then, select the appropriate test function from the menu, such as speed certification or cable testing. The tester will quickly analyze the network and display the results. When using the ping function, enter the specific IP or URL address, or choose to ping up to 8 IP targets at once. For network mapping and VLAN discovery, let the tester run its advanced discovery feature. It will show you the network layout and relevant information. Remember to keep the tester away from strong magnetic fields and high - temperature environments. After each use, clean the tester gently with a dry cloth. Periodically check the battery level and recharge it in time. If you encounter any problems, refer to the user manual or contact customer support.
