Nov 22, 2013 Original Review: What I needed and expected was the Fluke part # and description on the Amazone webssite - a kit that includes both the Link Runner AT 2000 and the Cable IQ - LRAT-CIQ-GSV. What actually shipped only includes the Cable IQ. The most expensive item in the kit was missing - the Link Runner AT 2000, retailing for approx $1500.

Set the Flash Port flash rate from slow to fast to differentiate from the other switch port LED flash rates. Using the Cable Test There are three use models for using the Cable screen: • Connect a cable from the top LR-AT RJ-45 connector into the side cable test RJ-45 connector to measure length and wire mapping. • Connect an open cable (non-terminated) into the top LR-AT RJ-45 connector and measure length. An un- terminated cable can also be traced using a Fluke Networks IntelliTone tester and the Tone function. • Connect a cable into the top LR-AT RJ-45 connector and select Tone. Using a Fluke Networks IntelliTone tester, you can trace the wire or locate it in the switch closet. Using AutoTest, Switch, and Cable Test ffy30.bmp Figure 18. Cable Test Results 21 LinkRunner AT 1000/2000 Network Auto-Tester Users Manual Using PoE Feature PoE is disabled by default. To enable PoE, select Tools > PoE Configuration, and check Enable PoE. Select the Class you want to verify. If you have purchased the LR-AT 2000, you can TruePowerTM test the Class. The results are displayed in the Autotest and Switch tests. When you select a PoE Class higher than the switch can handle, LR-AT 2000 will provide the loaded results indicating the switch can not handle this Class setting. The LR-AT 1000 will display the unloaded results indicating voltage and wattage selected. The following example was tested on a Class 3 (13w) switch. The tester PoE configuration was set to Class 4 (25w) with TruePowerTM disabled. Figure 19 displays the AutoTest results and Figure 20 displays the Switch results. Notice in the Autotest results, the wire pair polarity, wattage requested and wattage received, voltage and PSE type are given. PSE is the Power Sourcing Equipment rating, Type 1 (12.95W - 15.40W) and Type 2 (25.5W - 34.20W). 22In the next example, the Switch results are shown with the same setup, i.e., no load, Class 4 (25.5w). ffy39.bmp Figure 20. TruePowerTM Disabled PoE Switch Results ffy37.bmp Figure 19. TruePowerTM Disabled PoE AutoTest Results ffy38.bmp Figure 22. TruePowerTM Enabled Poe Switch Results Notice the switch was loaded down to 5v indicating it does not support the selected Class. ffy47.bmp Figure 21. TruePowerTM Enabled PoE AutoTest Results Using AutoTest, Switch, and Cable Test See Reflector Configuration on page 14 for setting up this feature. Once set up, the device can be used as the remote responding device for throughput performance testing. There is no start or stop, and no results are displayed on the tester. Using the Reflector Feature (LR-AT 2000 only) The Reflector feature allows the LR-AT 2000 to be used as a remote device for Fluke Networks EtherScope Network Assistant, MetroScope Service Provider, and the OptiView Analyzer’s throughput performance tests. Using the Fiber Connection Simply plug in the desired SFP adapter into the fiber port on the top of the tester and connect the fiber cable to the network. If both fiber and RJ-45 copper are connected to the network, the copper connection has priority. Figure 23 shows the Switch results through a fiber connection with link, 1000 Mbps speed, full duplex, with a signal strength of 7.35dBm. 23 LinkRunner AT 1000/2000 Network Auto-Tester Users Manual 24 ffy46.bmp Figure 23.
