Fluke DSX-5000 Cable Analyser Description

The DSX-5000 Cable Analyser is the copper certification solution and is part of the Versiv cabling certification product family. The Versiv line also includes fiber OLTS certification, and OTDR modules. Versiv is designed around the revolutionary ProjX management system and Taptive user interface. ProjX tracks jobs, to ensure they’re done correctly the first time, eliminating rework. With the Taptive user interface, instrument set-up and operation are made so simple, even operators with limited cabling skills can successfully test and troubleshoot a system. Analysis of measurement data and professional test reports are easy using the familiar LinkWare management software.

Versiv Platform is Ready for Today's and Tomorrow's Jobs

Electrically centered plug design is compliant with proposed ISO (IEC WG9 Standard IEC61935-1) Level V accuracy requirements to 1000 MHz with a future-ready design to support all hardware upgrades

The DSX-5000 Cable Analyser enables cable testing and certification for 10 Gigabit Ethernet deployments - whether it is an existing Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6A or Class FA cabling system, the DSX tests to all industry standards. The electrically centered test plug results in the Level V accuracy designation introduced with IEC to support field testing to Class FA, 1000 MHz. The DSX exceeds the IEC Level V specification with less than half the allowable crosstalk margin, assuring you of higher confidence in results over the full frequency range. Higher performance cabling systems like Cat 6A have less tolerance to interference and less noise margin in general. Additionally complex Alien Crosstalk link-to-link certification is simplified by integrating the measurement capability into each copper module for 10GBASE-T testing.

The DSX is the first field tester to support balance measurements including Transverse Conversion Loss (TCL) and Equal Level Transverse Conversion Transfer Loss (ELTCTL). TCL and ELTCTL are important measurements found in the cabling standards. They define a minimum performance for balance, the key parameter to help determine noise immunity. Industrial network owners/operators are especially interested in this property as it is a key parameter to help determine electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Fluke Networks' DSX-5000 Cable Analyser meets the Intertek (ETL) Certification in accordance with the IEC-61935-1 specifications for accuracy Level IV, the draft accuracy Level V and in accordance with the ANSI/TIA-1152 specifications for Level IIIe.

ProjX Management System Manages Complex Jobs with Ease

Manage up to 12,000 test results with full graphics

Managing the testing of multiple jobs with multiple teams, testers, and requirements is time consuming and can be hard to manage. Increasingly larger jobs make project organisation more important than ever. The new ProjX management system on the DSX- 5000 provides individual project files for all job specific details to be saved under a simple name. Eliminating the need to re-enter job specific details after starting a project. This minimises set-up errors or lost files when switching from one job to another or utilising multiple testers on a single job. In addition, it provides test results by cable ID, merges any changes without duplicates and always defaults to the last copper or fiber module installed. ProjX management system provides real time status to completion on each job with a 0-100% scale and gives the operator the option to isolate any test requiring a second look and helps to assure nothing is overlooked. The "Fix Later" selection creates a punch list or automatic to do list for correcting any workmanship. ProjX enables project managers and crew leaders to be truly efficient.
