Radiodetection 6100-Cu Copper Network Analyser
The Radiodetection 6100-Cu Copper Network Analyser is purpose built for the installation, maintenance and repair of DSL and voice circuits. An ideal tool for copper network testing, the internal testing process of the 6100-Cu is highly automated, allowing technicians to finish jobs quickly and efficiently. With this analyser, operators can asses the electrical health of a network via a comprehensive suite of digital multimeter measurements all of which align with existing methods and procedures. Determine physical copper circuit quality or locate faults rapidly, in addition to completing high-voltage balance testing on inactive pairs. The 6100-Cu is available as a Standard, Advanced or Pro model, for a full breakdown of included features please check out the kit comparison section below.
Test noise including VF Impulse, WB PSD or Power Influence up to 35Mhz and complete resistance isolation tests on voltages anywhere from 50 V up to 500 V. The multimeter functions of the Radiodetection 6100-Cu include:
- AC/DC Voltages and Frequencies
- AC/DC Currents and Frequencies
- Resistance
- Resistive Balance
- Isolation/Leakage
- Capacitance/Opens
- Station Ground
- Stressed Balance
Other advanced features include Wideband attenuation, crosstalk noise test (NEXT), Bridge test (two and four wire RFL), K-test (single and repeated mode) and an Intelligence test to determine and automatically locate the core physical problem. The FaultMapper tool, included as standard in all 6100 models, can be used to identify or locate shorts, opens, grounds, bridged tap and load coils. The Time Domain Reflectometer feature, including Auto, Manual and xTalk, offer:
- Live
- Live and Peak
- Peak Only
- Live + Stored + Differential
- Landscape mode setting for expanded viewing
Ergonomic and Hard-Wearing Design
The Radiodetection 6100-Cu Copper Network Analyser boasts a large LCD, colour, touch-screen display completely visible even in bright daylight while the handgrip area makes hand-held operation effortlessly comfortable. Driven by easy-to-understand menus and a multifunction keypad, the compact yet rugged design of the unit is ideal for network technicians in the field. The innovative and icon-driven user interface is compatible with the handy Stylus, included as standard with the 6100 range. Copper connectors and Ethernet connector are safely sealed against the environment, with a compartment on each side on the model protecting interface connections such as the USB port from water and dirt. These multiple connection options add to the versatility of the 6100, whilst the all-round rubber casing protects against physical damage and is IP54 rated against the harshest conditions.
