CHAPTER 1: Introduction
1. Introduction
1.1 The Digital Solution for Fiber and Copper
OMNIScanner is the most advanced hand-held certification and diagnostic tool for
the verification of copper links. The Category 7, 6, 5E (Enhanced), 5 and ISO Class
F, E, D, and C tester has an extended frequency range of 300 MHz. OMNIScanner
provides full software compliance with TIA and ISO/IEC requirements for
measurement reporting and analysis (including Length, Delay, ACR, NEXT,
ELFEXT, Return Loss, Resistance, PSNEXT, PSACR, PSELFEXT, and
Attenuation). In addition, OMNIScanner measures Length, Delay, Impedance,
and Resistance on coaxial cabling.
OMNIFiber expands the tester’s capabilities to certify installed fiber links
against TIA and ISO standards. Fiber cabling can be verified at 850 and 1300 nm
wavelengths.
1.2 The Graphical User Interface
OMNIScanner’s graphical user interface consists of a backlit LCD display, quick-
access menus, arrow keys, and descriptive menu options that guide you through
certifying or troubleshooting cabling systems.
1.3 OMNIRemote
For test and certification of twisted-pair cabling, the OMNIScanner requires the
OMNIRemote unit at the opposite end of the cabling link under test.
OMNIScanner communicates with OMNIRemote to obtain status and perform
measurements from both ends of the link.
OMNIRemote is equipped with a speaker to generate tones, and several colored
LEDs to indicate overall test results and status.
1.4 OMNIFiber
OMNIFiber transforms OMNIScanner and OMNIScanner2 into a fiber optic tool
for testing and certification of multimode and single-mode fiber premise networks.
OMNIFiber consists of two identical test heads that attach directly onto
OMNIScanner and OMNIRemote to become a part of each unit. Using the 1-
Button Autotest feature, OMNIFiber measures loss (multimode and single-mode)
and length (multimode) over two fibers simultaneously. The measurements are
