Softing IT Networks 226105 INSTALL_ACC_KIT Installer accessory kit content_copy

The Installer Accessory Kit for the LinkXpert Series from Softing IT Networks is a comprehensive set for professional network installation and maintenance. It serves as a supplement to the devices in the LinkXpert Series, particularly the TP, M3, and SQ models, and provides all necessary adapters, cables, and tools for quick and precise identification and connection of network ports. The kit is specifically designed for electrical and IT tradespeople who value structured and efficient workflows when cabling data and coaxial networks.

Applications
This accessory kit is primarily used in the field of network infrastructure, especially for installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting in structured cabling systems. It supports work with twisted-pair cables (RJ45) as well as coaxial cables (Coax F, Coax N), which are used in office buildings, industrial facilities, or residences for data transmission, telephony, or video transmission. The included port identifiers allow for unique marking of connections, significantly simplifying the assignment of end devices in complex cabling setups.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The kit includes a variety of adapters and cables designed to connect different types of connectors. These include 1x RJ45 to Coax F female adapter, 2x RJ45 to RJ11 adapters, and 7x Smart Remotes (Remote #2 to #8), which are used for remote control and diagnostics of network connections. The 20x Coax port identifiers and 24x RJ45 port identifiers serve for visual marking of connections, enabling quick localization of error sources. Additionally, it includes 2x Coax F female-female couplers and 1x Coax N male to F female coupler to enable flexible connection of coaxial cables. The cable set comprises 1x 0.5 m Coax F male to Coax F male cable, 7x 0.5 m RJ45 to RJ45 cables, and 1x RJ45 to Alligator Clip cable, suitable for temporary connections to exposed conductors.

Technology Explained Simply
The Smart Remotes are small, battery-operated devices that communicate with the LinkXpert test instrument to test cabling over long distances. The port identifiers are small, colored markers attached to network ports to identify their function or assignment. The couplers and adapters enable connection between different connector systems, increasing flexibility during installation. The CP15 cable tracer is used to locate cables in wall or ceiling installations, making the search for hidden wiring more efficient.

Compatibility and Accessories
The accessory kit is specifically developed for the LinkXpert TP, M3, and SQ devices and ensures optimal functionality with these test instruments. The included Smart Remotes are designed for remote control via the test instrument, enabling network diagnostics even over long distances. The adapters and cables are designed for use with standard RJ45 and coaxial connectors, widely used in IT and electrical installations.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is carried out by using the included adapters and cables to establish connections between the test instrument and the ports to be tested. The port identifiers are clipped or glued directly onto the ports to ensure clear identification. The Smart Remotes are connected at the respective endpoints of the cabling, with communication controlled via the test instrument. The CP15 cable tracer is connected to the test instrument and used to locate cables in installed conduits.

Operational Advantages
The kit reduces the time required for network installation and troubleshooting, as all necessary adapters and tools are included in the set. Clear marking of ports via the port identifiers reduces error rates when assigning end devices. The Smart Remotes enable diagnostics over long distances, reducing the need to be physically present at both ends of a cable. The Softtragetasche with compartments ensures organized storage and quick access to individual components.
