Press Release - First PROFINET Cable Tester

Date: 21 February 2009
The first handheld PROFINET cable tester has been launched. It is an essential tool to verify the condition of the PROFINET cabling after assembly and installation.

It is a robust product which has been especially designed for PROFINET and suitable for industrial environments. With just 1 key-press the test result is directly displayed and continuously updated. If a cable did not pass the test, it will clearly indicate what the problem is and which wires/pins are affected. This product does not require special skills and is therefore extremely helpful for installers who have to verify their work. It is easy to use and gives the technician quick and understandable feedback about the quality of the wiring. The tester is comparable with the popular BT200 for PROFIBUS. It can also be utilized on all other Ethernet networks with 4-wire and 8-wire shielded cables.
