Wireless network tester

16 August 2017 Test & Measurement

The AirCheck G2 tester from Netscout provides fast, simple and accurate isolation and troubleshooting of wireless issues. Supporting a large variety of maintenance and troubleshooting issues such as interference problems or access-point access and configuration, it targets network system designers, technicians and maintenance engineers, as well as anyone working in an industrial or commercial building with a wireless network.

This rugged, handheld instrument supports the latest Wi-Fi technologies (802.11a/b/g/n/ac). It has a one-button AutoTest feature which quickly provides a pass/fail indication of the wireless environment and identifies common problems. It also shows an instant view of test results including network availability, connectivity, utilisation, security settings, rogue hunting and interference detection. The tester also enables connectivity to a centralised test results management platform – Link-Live – which facilitates greater job visibility, project control and fleet management for larger distributed environments.

Based on the original AirCheck Wi-Fi tester, the G2 unit builds on its legacy to offer additional functionality such as 802.11ac 3-stream radio, a 5” touchscreen display, Ethernet tests for AP backhaul verification, automatic uploads of basic connectivity tests to the Link-Live cloud service, and adjacent channel interference testing in AutoTest.
