IntelliTone digital toning technology:
- Ends cable location confusion, decisively rejects noise and false signals
- Locates cables on active networks, even when terminated at a switch
- Isolates cable and wiring within a bundle, despite cable bleed
- Confirms cable location, verifies continuity, and detects faults (opens, shorts, and reversed pairs) in one step
Breakthrough digital and analog toning in one
IntelliTone™ Pro is the first toner and probe to offer digital and analog toning all in one tool. That means it’s equipped with the most powerful cable location and verification technologies for any work environment – even active networks.
- Eliminates confusion over cable location; decisively rejects noise and false signals
- Locates the correct cable bundle
- Isolates a cable within the bundle, despite cable bleed
- Verifies twisted-pair installation with visual end-to-end continuity test (opens, shorts and reversed pairs)
- Identifies individual wire pairs with new SmartTone™ analog toning
- Simplifies signal interpretation in noisy environments with multiple LED indicators
Locate cables quickly and easily
Fluke Networks has applied decades of cable test engineering expertise to the science of locating copper cables. The result is what we call IntelliTone technology – a digital signal-toning and signal-interpreting process that rapidly zeroes in on cables.
IntelliTone technology energizes cable conductors with a smart, sychronized digital signal. Multiple tone types occur in the signal that help you to:
- LOCATE the correct cable bundle using maximum radiation.
- ISOLATE a cable within the bundle using a signal with minimum radiation.
- VERIFY cable conductor continuity with an automated signal that steps through each conductor.
Locate hidden cables
One of the toughest, most time-consuming parts of locating a cable has been in tracing its path amidst multiple cables and bundles in wiring closets. The IntelliTone digital signal features a LOCATE tone that provides maximum radiation, allowing you to quickly locate hidden and hard-to-find cabling.
Isolate the right cable or pair – fast
Cabling installations have become increasingly complex, which has made cabling increasingly difficult to locate with traditional technologies.
When cables are run together for even short lengths, a signal from one can bleed over to another. One cable might carry the original signal; other cables might carry the signal as a result of bleed. Isolating cables with traditional tools requires guesswork, training, time for repeated testing – and even the best efforts often result in mistakes.
IntelliTone Pro provides two cutting-edge technologies to isolate cables or wire pairs. Digital mode can be used to isolate twisted-pair cables on a switch or within a bundle. SmartTone™ analog mode can be used to isolate wire pairs at an unterminated outlet.
Overcome noise – and save hours of time
Fluorescent lights, machinery, computer monitors and electrical wiring all produce noise that slows down cable location. Together, the IntelliTone Pro Toner’s synchronized digital signal and the IntelliTone Pro Probe’s microprocessor controlled signal identification technology reject noise and false signals to clearly identify cable location. This can save you hours every week on cable location projects.
Tone on live networks safely and effectively
Modern network devices use common mode termination for cables connected to their ports. This reduces noise and crosstalk in the cable; but, it can also absorb a traditional toner signal. Unlike traditional signals, the IntelliTone digital signal stays strong despite common mode termination. And the IntelliTone Pro 200 LAN Toner automates toning individual cable conductors, making it quick, efficient and safe to locate cables on active networks.
Verify conductor continuity with cablemap
Eliminate callbacks during cabling moves, adds and changes with the powerful diagnostic capabilities of IntelliTone™ Pro 200 LAN. The IntelliTone Pro 200 Probe features a Cablemap capability that identifies common cable miswires in twisted pair cabling. IntelliTone technology automates the testing of each conductor for end-to-end continuity; LED lights and tones clearly indicate miswires.
Identify and troubleshoot cable services
Service – Is the RJ45 jack a datacom jack, or a dead jack? IntelliTone Pro 200 LAN Toner LEDs clearly identify common datacom services found on today’s networks including 10/100/Gigabit Ethernet links.
Continuity – Once you’ve located a cable, the next step is to verify cable conductor continuity. IntelliTone Pro 200 LAN Toners make it easy – eliminating the need for a separate diagnostic tool.
- Multiple-level LEDs simplify signal interpretation in noisy environments. Visually steps through wiremap tests
- SYNC indicates detection of IntellTone signal and shows battery status at power-up
Choose between two digital detection modes:
- Digital detection mode: lets you locate cables at a distance
- Digital detection mode: lets you isolate cables in bundles or at patch panels
- Analog mode used to isolate individual wire pairs with SmartTone
- Test cable continuity – eliminating need for separate diagnostic tool
- Time-saving thumbwheel lets you select desired toning mode on the probe rather than toner
- Plug works with CableMap function – eliminating the need for a separate wiremap tool
Toner and Probe shared features:
IntelliTone digital technology with advanced signal processing provides high-resolution measurement
- Auto-Off feature: The toner turns off automatically after 2.5 hours of inactivity. Probe turns off after 1 hour of inactivity
- SmartTone™ analog technology: IntelliTone Pro Toners generate four different analog songs which alternate every time the pair under test is shorted; IntelliTone Pro Probes detect this tone or any other analog signal from other testers
- Battery status: 3-level battery status indicator LEDs on the toner and probe light for one second at power on
