• Extended copper cable certification up to 500 MHz, Class D/E/EA & CAT 5e/6/6A
• Meets and exceeds TIA and ISO Level IIIe accuracy requirements, ETL verified
• Includes all accessories for measurements on industrial M12D, M12 X, and RJ45 routes
• Measures the cabling structures required for industrial applications, e.g.: end-to-end cabling, MPTL
• Certification testing of Patch cords

WireXpert 500 is an affordable and upgradable cable certification tester that can grow with your cable certification needs. Invest today only in options that are really needed and upgrade the device later when necessary. Options are available for just copper cable certification up to CAT 6A/Class EA, a fiber optic multimode and single-mode tier 1 certification tester, and a combined copper and fiber certification tester. The individual options can be upgraded with a license. For example: If today you install copper and in the future require additional fiber cabling installations, you could then upgrade your WireXpert 500 copper certifier to a WireXpert 500-PLUS, a copper and fiber certifier. If you need the future certification up to CAT 8, all models can be upgraded to that frequency range as well.

Easy to use and Ruggedized design

WireXpert 500 comes with an intuitive touch-sensitive user interface, featuring bright color LCD screens designed for industrial, heavy-duty usage. The Dual Control System (DCS TM) – featuring identical devices for the remote and main unit – makes it fast and simple to operate the test cycles. Whether used by two technicians or one person working alone, the walking time between outlets is minimized.

Fast and simple for the highest productivity

WireXpert 500 completes the CAT 6A certification test in seconds. It offers intuitive navigation through the on-screen menus and generates professional reports through the accompanying eXport PC software.

Proven Accuracy

WireXpert 500 is based on a measurement system independently verified by highly respected test laboratories including ETL.

Copper patch cord testing with WireXpert

WireXpert 500 offers an efficient way for quickly identifying and recording the performance of patch cords. With its fast and accurate dual-ended testing, WireXpert 500 patch cord test kits are suitable for both manufacturing test applications, as well as for incoming inventory inspection at end-user premises. WireXpert 500 patch cord test kits are available for testing CAT 5e, CAT 6, and CAT 6A patch cords.

Industrial Ethernet cabling test

The WireXpert 500 industrial Ethernet cable test solution comprises M12 adapter kits. With both channel and permanent link configurations and E2E using M12 industrial Ethernet, connectors are supported. Industrial Ethernet kits supporting X-Coded M12 interface are also available, making it possible to effectively test 10-Gig ready Industrial Ethernet cables.

Coax cable test

WireXpert 500 also supports testing of coaxial cables for at equation, length, resistance, delay, and return loss with the optional coax test adapters.

WireXpert 500 includes eXport computer-based reporting software. eXport facilitates data management and the generation of professional reports and warranty documents. In addition, eXport Software enables list-based testing and a hierarchical cable labeling scheme. With eXport, it is also possible to correct measurements that were initially performed with incorrect measurement standards. With re-certification, the operator can apply the right measurement standards to the data retroactively. Data integrity remains because the date of the measurements does not change.
