TSW900ETH - Ethernet Tester
The TSW900ETH is a portable hand-held test unit that is operated with a keyboard and
provides a colour LCD display. It also provides a set of LEDs as a quick status check reference.
The unit is powered with internal batteries or with the provided Power Supply.
An intuitive graphical user interface gives access to a complete set of testing
capabilities that allow technicians to measure and prove performance criteria for carrier
Ethernet network.

Simultaneous Circuit Testing

The TSW900ETH features a full dual-port capability. Dual RJ-45 for electrical testing
and dual SFP for optical testing combo ports (10/100/1000Base-T or SFP). This feature enable
field technicians to perform simultaneous testing of two circuits. These circuits may be
provisioned for two fully independent customers, or they may represent two routes in a single
network.
