The MicroScanner PoE Cable Verifier validates and troubleshoots your Industrial Ethernet copper cabling, helping to reduce down time in time-sensitive industrial networks. It performs continuity tests on all wires in a few seconds and displays the results graphically, so you can see opens, shorts, and crossed wires.
The MicroScanner PoE helps make installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting on IT, security, PoE lighting, Ethernet-based HVAC devices, and IP-based building automation systems easier. Its oversized, backlit LCD screen displays clear results in any light or complete dark with intuitive icons and support of Class 0 to 8 PoE.
Specifications apply at 23 °C (73 °F), unless otherwise noted.

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 | MicroScanner™ PoE: Solicits and detects the presence of 802.3af, at, bt, and UPOE (Cisco’s Universal Power over Ethernet) compatible PoE devices |
Performance specifications | |
Cable types tested | Twisted pair: UTP, FTP, SSTP |
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 (MicroScanner™2). 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 | MicroScanner™ PoE: Detects the advertised speed of 802.3 Ethernet ports with speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps, and 10 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. |
