NetXpert XG2 is the cable tester for you if...

• you need to prove Ethernet cable performance to an application speed of 100Mb, 1G, 5G, or 10G
• you have a suspect cable installation or environment with EMI
• you have old cables and you need to prove they will work with new access points or higher than designed speeds
• you need to prove that copper cables longer than 100 meters will perform
• you need to test copper, Wi-Fi, and PoE (no fiber)
• certification is not required
• cable warranty is not being supplied by a cable manufacturer

High data transmission rates up to 10Gb/s Ethernet and new Power-over-Ethernet, PoE, applications up to 90W lead to new challenges in the field of structured cabling. NetXpert XG2 offers comprehensive active network and passive cable testing, with BERT testing, to prove cable speed up to 10Gb/s for qualification, commissioning, and troubleshooting on copper and fiber cabling.

With the largest touch display in its class, NetXpert XG2 guarantees easy operation and clear presentation of results.  NetXpert XG2 offers a unique method to prove cable speed due to the combination of 5 test methods for the evaluation of a data link - BERT (bit error rate test), SNR (signal to noise ratio), Delay Skew, Wiremap, and length of cable.

Flexible, expandable model range - upgradeable BERT from 1 to 10Gb/s

NetXpert XG2 and NetXpert XG2-PLUS perform BERT cable testing from 1 to 10Gb/s.  With their unique combination of 5 measurement methods, these cable testers check whether your cabling can transmit Ethernet up to 10Gb/s without interference from noise, distortion, damaged cables, or EMI (electromagnetic interference).

The NetXpert XG2 is available in the entry version starting at 1Gb/s BERT and can be upgraded to 10Gb/s BERT at any time by downloadable license.

The NetXpert XG2-PLUS is fully equipped to perform BERT over fiber optic cabling up to 10Gb/s.  Watch video.

Active Network Tester

NetXpert XG2 can perform active network tests such as DHCP, switch IP address, switch speed (not BERT), gateway address, subnet mask, DNS server, lease time, response time, network discovery, ping, check for duplicate IPs, traceroute, LLDP, CDP, and check for VLANs.  One extremely powerful tool is the ability to insert your SFP into an available NetXpert XG2 bay and check SFP properties.  Watch video.
