• Checks PC drops for connectivity, speed, duplex and service ID
• Determines cable configurations
• Verifies connectivity to key network resources

LinkRunner is an easy-to-use tool that helps the user to quickly determine if a connectivity problem is in the network or the PC NIC. It will show whether the drop is active by identify 10Base-T, 100Base-TX (full or half-duplex), Token ring, Telco, Cable-ID, unpowered PC or hub, Auto-MDIX ports and Auto-Negotiation or strapped ports. The cable check will determine if the cable length is within specifications, whether it is straight or crossover and if any faults exist such as open, short, splits, or crossed. Ping capabilities verify connectivity to key network resources and also shows if a PC NIC is responding. For finding unused or end of drops in use, LinkRunner can blink the hub port or PC light and also inject tone so an optional Tone Receiver can be used to locate the cable.

LinkRunner Network Mulimeter includes tester, wiremap adapter, quick reference user guide and (2) AA alkaline batteries. The LinkRunner Extended Test Kit includes the tester along with all the options listed below. The Cable ID Kit contains 8 numbered plugs to help identify links by reporting plug number from the opposite cable end to LinkRunner. The Clip Set allows testing on unterminated cable. The Wiremap Adapter acts as a far end termination point for testing of the physical layer. PC Inspector is a software utility that checks the PC configuration. The MicroProbe is an inductive amplifier to pick up the tone injected by the LinkRunner.
