EIN Ideal Lan 400

Oct 8, 2020

LanXPLORER Pro is a tester for analyzing and diagnosing problems in networks, cabling, and Ethernet devices using copper, fiber, and Wi-Fi interfaces.

Using the LanXPLORER Pro in-line and endpoint modes, IT Technicians can pinpoint issues that are unable to be found with management software as it physically connects to the point of interest instead of scanning the entire network.

LanXPLORER Pro does not examine the contents of the data being analyzed therefore personal and confidential information will remain confidential.
