The MicroScanner2 Cable Verifier helps find common errors quickly, displaying results from what were four different test modes all at once on its oversized, backlit LCD display: graphical wire map, pair lengths, distance to fault, cable ID, and far-end device. Its integrated RJ11, RJ45, and coax test ports support virtually any type of low-voltage cable testing, with no need for awkward adapters. The end result is reduced test time and technician error — which makes high-quality installations more efficient and troubleshooting easier.

Test modes | |
Cable test | Measures length, verifies wiremap, identifies remote ID locators, and detects Ethernet ports. MicroScanner PoE also shows HIGH Ω when the resistance of the cable is more than 12.5 Ω. Displays results on one screen. |
Tone | Generates Intellitone™ and normal analog toning signals |
PoE | MicroScanner2: Solicits and detects the presence of 802.3af compatible PoE (Power over Ethernet) devices |
Performance specifications | |
Cable types tested | Twisted pair: UTP, FTP, SSTP Coaxial (MicroScanner2): 75 Ω, 50 Ω, 93 Ω |
Length test | Range: 460 m (1500 ft) Resolution: 0.3 m (1 ft) Typical accuracy: ± 4% or 0.6 m (2 ft) whichever is greater. NVP uncertainty is an additional error. Calibration: User-settable NVP for twisted pair and coax (MicroScanner2). Can determine actual NVP with known length of cable. |
Wiremap test | Detects single-wire faults, shorts, miswires, split pairs, and up to seven far-end adapter IDs. The wiremap is drawn with proportional length to visually indicate the approximate location of faults. |
Ethernet port detection | MicroScanner2: Detects the advertised speed of 802.3 Ethernet ports with speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1 Gbps. |
Tone generator | Supports toning and cable mapping with a Fluke Networks digital IntelliTone™ probe. Generates four tones compatible with typical analog probes. SmartTone™ feature gives positive identification of cables in bundles when using an IntelliTone or an analog probe. |
