The NetXpert XG2 network cabling qualifier offers a complete solution to test copper and 

fiber network cabling. In a quick and easy way, the device tests and documents, whether  

a cabling link is able to support data rates of up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet in compliance 

with IEEE 802.3 by testing the data carrying capabilities of Ethernet network cabling up 

to 10Gb/s, determining the signal-to-noise ratio, and detecting faults in the cable wiring. 

This ensures that the cabling is able to support the speed capabilities of active equipment 

connected to the network.
In this quick start guide you find the most important information for carrying out cable 

tests with the NetXpert XG2. For detailed descriptions please use the user manual on our
