FLUKE networks 5018508 MS-POE MicroScanner PoE Cable Verifier Tester

SKU CH-GZGJ-1P4KW

Verifies copper Ethernet cables up to 460 metres, tests PoE classes 0 to 8 to 90 watts, and measures length, wire map, and distance to fault

  • Verifies PoE power up to 90 W with active negotiation
  • Measures cable length to 460 m with 0.3 m resolution
  • Wire-maps to TIA 568 A/B standards for correct pinouts
  • Identifies switch speed capability up to 10 G Ethernet
  • Locates cables using IntelliTone digital and analog toning

Copper cable verifier for PoE installers

The Fluke Networks 5018508 MS-POE MicroScanner tests RJ-45 Category 5 through 6A Ethernet cables. It identifies supplied Class 0 to 8 power from active PSE devices including 802.3af/at/bt, Cisco UPOE and PoH. The oversized backlit LCD shows maximum power class, voltage up to 90 Watts, cable length, wire map and distance to fault.

PoE class detection up to Class 8

The single specification that decides fit is the ability to negotiate and display the maximum PoE class available from the source. It detects voltages from active 802.3af/at/bt PSEs and shows the class 0 to 8 result on screen. If the job only requires basic continuity or length measurement without power negotiation, this tester provides more capability than needed.

Handheld tester with detachable wire-map adapter

The rugged rubber-grip unit runs on two included AA alkaline batteries and fits the supplied carry pouch. Connect the main RJ-45 port to the cable and attach the remote identifier at the far end for wire-map and ID location. A common error is testing dead cables without an active PSE connected, which prevents PoE class negotiation and voltage readout.

Questions about this item

What does the 90 watt figure tell me when I plug the MS-POE into a live PoE port?

The tester negotiates with the power-sourcing equipment and reports the maximum class of power available, up to 90 watts, so you see the real delivered capacity at that outlet.

How does the 802.3 PoE negotiation work on this verifier?

It actively negotiates and solicits power at the hardware or link layer using LLDP, detecting supplied Class 0-8 power from 802.3af/at/bt, Cisco UPOE and PoH sources.

What cable types and lengths can the wire-map adapter handle?

It supports UTP, FTP and SSTP twisted-pair cables, measuring length to 460 metres or 1500 feet with 0.3 metre or 1 foot resolution and mapping to TIA 568A/B standards.
