NetXpert XG2 – Network Performance Tester for 10G Ethernet Qualification

Qualification, Commissioning and Troubleshooting – Fast and Intuitive

Modern networks with 10 Gbit/s Ethernet and PoE up to 90W present new challenges for structured cabling.

The NetXpert XG2 provides comprehensive testing for qualification, commissioning, and troubleshooting across copper and fiber networks.

 

Flexible and Expandable Platform

The NetXpert XG2 and XG2-PLUS qualify twisted pair cabling from 1 to 10 Gbit/s Ethernet. With their unique combination of four measurement methods, these devices verify whether cabling can reliably transmit Ethernet data up to 10 Gbit/s without errors.

The NetXpert XG2 is available starting from 1 Gbit/s and can be upgraded to 10 Gbit/s.

The NetXpert XG2-PLUS is fully equipped to qualify fiber optic cabling up to 10 Gbit/s, making it a comprehensive solution for modern network environments.
