The DTX advantage: speed, performance and accuracy

The DTX CableAnalyzer’s powerful fea- tures, speed and ease-of-use, increases efficiency and productivity, improving your bottom line. It’s all about time – and no other tester delivers like the DTX.

Increase productivity from day one. Intuitive interface means your technicians spend less time in training and more time testing.

Level IV Accuracy. Get the most accurate test results in the shortest possible time.

Advanced time-saving diagnostics. Pinpoints the location of a failure and is the only tester that suggests corrective action, saving troubleshooting time.

12-hour battery life. Gives you the power to complete any job.

Professional reporting. LinkWare™ Cable Test Manage- ment Software manages test results and produces reports in hardcopy or PDF format.

The DTX Series future-proofs your investment, giving you a clear and simple upgrade path from the DTX-ELT to any higher performance model, including the DTX-1800.

Certification made easy

The DTX-ELT gives you a solution that streamlines every aspect of the certification

job – from setup, to testing and record-fast

troubleshooting, to reporting results to the customer. This newest member of Fluke Networks DTX CableAnalyzer family, the DTX-ELT is designed to meet the specific needs of electrical installers.

Troubleshooting: twice as fast

When a link fails, the DTX-ELT shows you easy-to-understand directions to identify the point of failure (distance from the tester) and the possible reason(s) for the failure. These directions not only tell you the problem, but identify corrective actions you can take to solve the problem quickly.

Instead of spending time executing trial and error corrections – and re-testing to find out whether the problem has been resolved – the technician knows exactly where to look and what to do to fix the failing link. Even if only two percent of the tested links fail, the DTX diagnostics will save you as much as two hours of labor per day to turn the failures into passes.

Enhanced user experience

The DTX-ELT isn’t just a faster way to test. It cuts set-up, training and reporting times. Extended battery life means you can do more on a single charge. And a bright color display, ample memory, and built-in talk set all con- tribute to overall productivity while enhanc- ing the user experience. This all adds up to saving you time and money every day.

DTX-ELT specifications

The Fluke DTX-ELT (Ethernet Cable Tester) is a specialized tool designed to provide reliable testing and certification for Ethernet cabling systems. As the demand for high-speed data networks increases, the need for precise and effective testing solutions has become paramount. The DTX-ELT caters to this need by integrating advanced features and technologies that make networking professionals' jobs easier and more efficient.

One of the main features of the DTX-ELT is its ability to conduct comprehensive tests on all types of copper cabling, including twisted pair and coaxial. The device supports multiple testing standards such as Category 5e, 6, 6A, and 7, enabling users to verify the integrity of their installations up to 10 Gbps speeds. This versatility is crucial for technicians who need to ensure that their network installations meet current and future bandwidth requirements.

The performance testing capabilities of the Fluke DTX-ELT are further enhanced by its use of Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) technology. TDR allows the tester to accurately pinpoint cable faults, such as breaks, shorts, and mismatches, providing users with real-time diagnostics that facilitate quicker troubleshooting. The graphical representation of results gives users a clear understanding of the cable condition and helps in making informed maintenance decisions.

Another notable characteristic of the DTX-ELT is its user-friendly interface, which enables technicians to navigate through various testing options with ease. The large, backlit display provides clear readouts and simplifies the interpretation of results. Additionally, the device includes automated reporting features that reduce the time taken to compile test data, allowing technicians to focus more on their core responsibilities.

Moreover, the Fluke DTX-ELT supports the Fluke Networks LinkWare software, which offers powerful data management and reporting capabilities. This integration allows users to generate detailed test reports, track installation quality, and monitor performance over time. The device has a rugged design and is built to withstand the rigors of fieldwork, ensuring reliability even in challenging environments.

In summary, the Fluke DTX-ELT stands out as an industry-leading Ethernet cable testing solution that combines advanced testing technologies, user-friendly functionality, and robust reporting capabilities. It is an essential tool for networking professionals aiming to deliver high-quality installations that meet the demands of modern data networks.
