The WireXpert 4500 from Softing IT Networks is a refurbished used device with new factory calibration, used as a certifier for LAN copper cables and optical fibres (LWL). The device is designed for testing and certification of cabling systems according to international standards and covers a bandwidth up to 2,500 MHz. It enables certification according to standards such as Class D, E, EA, F, FA as well as Cat 5, 5e, 6, 6A, 7, 7A, Cat 8 and Class I & II. Certification is performed in accordance with ISO Level VI, V, IV, IIIe and TIA Level 2G as well as IIIe, exceeding the accuracy requirements. The ETL confirmation verifies compliance with these requirements.

Applications

The WireXpert 4500 is used in the installation, maintenance and testing of network infrastructures, particularly for certification of copper cables and fibre optic lines. It is suitable for professional users in the IT and electrical engineering sectors who require precise and documented testing of cabling systems.

Functions and Equipment in Detail

A central feature of the WireXpert 4500 is the Dual Control System (DCS™), where both the local and remote device are equipped with a large colour LCD screen. This enables efficient execution of test series, whether alone or in a team, and reduces travel time during testing. Fault finding is simplified by the visual display on the remote device. The device supports certification of LWL systems at wavelengths of 850/1300 nm (multimode) and 1310/1550 nm (singlemode), enabling comprehensive quality assurance of fibre optic infrastructure.

Technology Explained Simply

The measurement functions of the WireXpert 4500 are based on high-resolution analysis of the electrical and optical properties of the cabling. The bandwidth of 2,500 MHz allows testing of modern high-speed connections, including Cat 8 and Class FA. Certification is carried out according to the mentioned standards, with the devices not only meeting but exceeding the requirements. The ETL confirmation ensures the reliability of the measurement results. The integrated evaluation software eXport is license-free and enables the creation of detailed reports and documentation.

Compatibility and Accessories

The device is supplied with a set of adapters, including a pair of Class EA Channel adapters and a pair of Class EA Permanent-Link adapter sets. Additionally, a headset (1 pair) is included, enabling communication between the two devices during testing. The delivery also includes a USB stick, a quick start guide, a power supply, a Li-ion battery, a carrying bag and a calibration certificate. The evaluation software eXport is also included in the delivery scope.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is carried out by connecting the two handheld devices via cable connection, with adapters selected according to the standard being tested. The devices are compact and can be operated directly at the cable end. Operation is performed via touch or button control on the display. The battery-operated function enables mobile use without external power supply.

Operational Advantages

The WireXpert 4500 offers high measurement accuracy and reliability, secured by ETL confirmation and exceeding standard requirements. The DCS technology enables efficient and time-saving testing, especially during team work. The integrated documentation function with the license-free software eXport simplifies tracking and archiving of test results. The comprehensive equipment with adapters, headset and software reduces the need for additional accessories and tools.
