It is used in the planning, installation, and maintenance of structured cabling systems to ensure the performance and compliance of the cabling. Application areas include, among others, office buildings, industrial facilities, data centres, and other environments where high data transfer rates and reliability are required.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

The device enables certification of cables according to the standards ISO/IEC 11801, EN 50173, and TIA/EIA-568. It checks parameters such as loop resistance, impedance, NEXT, ACR, ELFEXT, and other relevant metrics to evaluate the performance of the cabling. The trade-in includes delivery of the WireXpert MP C6A with standard accessories and a carrying bag. The exact equipment of the device is defined in the delivery scope of the WireXpert MP C6A (item number 230001), which serves as the replacement device here.

Technology Explained Simply

The WireXpert MP C6A operates with modern measurement methods to precisely analyse the electrical properties of copper cables. The measurement is performed via the integrated connectors, which are connected to the cable ends. The device captures the signals and compares them with the requirements of the respective standard. The results are displayed on the integrated screen and can optionally be saved as a report or transferred. Certification is performed automatically if all parameters lie within the specified limits.

Compatibility and Accessories

The device is compatible with various accessories specifically developed for the WireXpert MP system. These include, for example, the fibre optic measurement module FS, the fibre optic measurement module FM, the fibre optic measurement module Quad, a hard-shell case for the WireXpert MP Kit, a camera cover, and a headset. These accessories extend the functionality of the device, for example, for fibre optic testing or to improve handling during field work.

Installation and Mounting

Installation of the WireXpert MP C6A is performed by simply connecting the test plugs to the cable ends to be tested. No special mounting is required, as the device is designed as a portable measuring instrument. Operation is via the integrated touch display, with measurement procedures being standardised and guided by the software. Results can be evaluated directly on the device or transferred to an external system via an interface.

Operational Advantages

The trade-in offer provides an economical way to acquire a modern certification device by returning an existing device. This reduces acquisition costs and enables the transition to a current device with extended functions. Certification is fast and reliable, thereby reducing field work time. Results are documentable and meet the requirements of relevant standards.

Delivery Scope

The delivery scope includes the WireXpert MP C6A with standard accessories and a carrying bag. The exact composition of the accessories corresponds to the delivery scope of the WireXpert MP C6A (item number 230001).

Conclusion
