EVERETT, Wash. – May 18, 2011 – Fluke Networks today released the DTX Patch Cord Test Adapter Series, the first test adapters that can certify both shielded and unshielded category 5e, 6 and 6A cable assemblies to global ANSI/TIA 568-C and ISO 11801:2010 standards. The new test adapters, which can provide results in as few as six seconds, expand the company’s DTX CableAnalyzer™ Series, the industry’s most trusted certification platform,1 and are designed to meet the needs of both cabling and patch cord manufactures and enterprises.
“Patch cords are often deemed the ‘weakest link’ in network and high bandwidth systems,” said Harley Lang, marketing manager, Fluke Networks. “Given the market’s continued migration to higher performing cabling, our new test adapter series continues our path of innovation to ensure our products keep pace with emerging technology trends in the market.”
