AEM Network Service Assistant

Multifunction Qualification+ Tester

No longer do users have to decide between the purchase of a qualification network tester or a cable certifier, the Network Service Assistant bridges the gap, with a Qualification+ hybrid solution featuring Certi-Lite.

 

Qualification

The multi-gigabit auto-test quickly establishes that a cable connection supports the desired network rate.

 

PoE-Validation

Validates the real power load at the outlet where the end device is used.

 

Testing the Network Connectivity

Tests the wired and wireless connectivity of the network

Certi-Lite

Cable Test for CAT3 - CAT6A

  • Certi-Lite performs an ANSI/TIA 1152-A compliant, single ended cable test for CAT3 – CAT6A, with a simple Pass/Fail indication.
     
  • This provides you with assurance of cabling link integrity to support your requirements.
     
  • The NSA performs this test using a small passive termination at the remote end, which helps to significantly reduce the overall cost of the test equipment when compared to traditional cable certifiers

Report Generation

  • Test results can be sent to TestDataPro Cloud test results repository via wired or wireless connection
     
  • Results can also be saved to memory for later upload to the PC based version of TestDataPro results management software

Advanced Link Identification ALI

Save Time and Ressources

  • AEM takes link identification to the next level with Certi-Lite capable numbered remote IDs
     
  • Unlike your typical “dumb” remote ID’s that simply tell if you have connected to number 1,2,3 and so on, AEM remote ID’s are smart, and are capable of supporting Certi-Lite
     
  • This allows you to qualify up to 8 cabling lines in a row for different IEEE applications or up to 10 Gig transmission rates from the patch panel using multiple remote IDs from the ALI system

Power Over Ethernet Validation

Comprehensive Test Functionality

  • NSA has the ability to validate Real Power load at the jack where and end device will be deployed.
     
  • NSA emulates a Powered Device (PD), such as a WAP or Camera by setting it to the specific standard applicable to that device.
     
  • NSA negotiates with the Power Source Equipment (PSE) to request information about the switch and the highest level of power load from the PSE for the selected standard.
     
  • For those pesky intermittent power issues, NSA can monitor power load over time.
     
  • This allows you to monitor live for any power fluctuation that drops below the required level threshold.Equipment (PSE), um Informationen über den Schalter und den höchsten Grad der von der PSE für den gewählten Standard anzufordern.

Quick Testing

  • NSA can also characterize the cabling links for DC resistance unbalance parameters either as part of a standard Certi-Lite Autotest or as a one-off quick test.

OTDR Testing (coming soon)

Fiber optic test

  •     The NSA is the first qualifier in the world to be able to perform a full OTDR measurement on fiber optic links using optional OTDR adapters, thus optimally combining copper and fiber optic testing in one device.
     
  •     The Multimode and Singlemode OTDR adapters have small dead zones and sufficient dynamic range to meet all challenges in network level 3/4.
     
  •     The OTDR adapters allow technicians to pinpoint the location of a fiber break or other loss event to the centimeter.

Multi-Gigabit Link Speed

Speed Qualification

  • NSA performs this Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) based test while under both traffic and PoE load, if a PSE is present.
     
  • This provides a real-world scenario of performance, to ensure the data signal can get through the noise on the wire.
     
  • NSA’s Multi-Gigabit Autotest is a quick and easy one button operation to ensure that a cabling link will support the desired network rate.
     

Validation Test

  • 10/100 Mpbs, 1 Gbps
     

PoE Load Test

  • 802.3 af/at/bt, UPoE
     

Quality of Service-Test

  • SNR 2.5 Gigabit, SNR 5 Gigabit, SNR 10 Gigabit

Wired and Wireless Network Connectivity Testing

BASE-T Wired Ethernet Connection Details

  • Perform Network Discovery to see what’s behind the jack.
  • Switch detail including slot/port/VLAN.
  • Display list of IP addresses for connected devices.
  • Select any IP address to view that device details, MAC address, and more.
  • View LAN details such as Gateway, Subnet Mask, DHCP Server.
  • Generate traffic to any desired IP address.
  • Perform Trace Route to see the connection path and intermediate hop delays for bottlenecks.
  • Use Ping to verify point-to-point or Internet connectivity and response time.

WI-FI Ethernet Connection

  • NSA’s auto-discovery will display all detected SSID’s and their associated RSSI (received power level). This is useful in determining if the Wi-Fi network to which the user is trying to connect has sufficient signal strength.

  • Determine Wi-Fi “dead zones” by roaming to checking RSSI values in different locations.

  • Connect to any SSID using the appropriate credentials for that network.

  • Use Ping to verify point-to-point connectivity or out to the Internet by selecting pre- defined or custom website URLs and see latency details
