K10 - Mapper8, a Comprehensive Connectivity Tester for Cables 

You just strung and crimped plugs on a dozen twisted-pair network cables to several rooms. Are they all correctly wired? Which cable goes to which room? If something doesn’t work, where is the problem? The Mapper 8 can help!

The Mapper8 provides complete connectivity testing of 8-wire modular cables as well as other cables. The Mapper8 can very quickly check for wiring problems such as opens, shorts, reversed pairs, etc. Connectivity is compared against a predefined or a user-defined connectivity map. The Mapper8 displays both a quick pass/fail indication as well as details on how the cable is wired or mis-wired.

Unlike simple "pair" cable testers, the Mapper 8 performs a complete connectivity test that can identify mis-wires and shorts and gives a direct indication of pass or fail. Further, the Mapper 8 displays the complete connectivity mapping between the near and far ends of the cable.

The Mapper 8 consists of two separate units; a master unit and a remote unit. This separate unit design allows easy testing of cables that may have already been installed between rooms. A group of installed cables can be rapidly tested and identified by using multiple remote units each with a different remote ID.
