⚡ At a Glance
- • Image Quality: Supports up to 8MP AHD/TVI/CVI tests and 4K HDMI/SDI input, shown on a 5-inch 1920x1080 IPS touch screen with 4x zoom.
- • Best for: Installers and maintenance engineers who need on-site camera commissioning, configuration and fault finding.
- • Not ideal for: Users who want a simple home monitor without advanced cable or network diagnostic tools.
Handheld 5-inch IPS tester for analogue and IP camera systems, with recording and playback. Includes PoE control, cable TDR and network camera tools for on-site commissioning.
Rapid network camera commissioning - with IPC Test Pro
IPC Test Pro auto-scans all network segments, attempts camera login using provided credentials, and can open PoE power for detected units. Batch activation functions support modifying IP addresses, usernames and passwords for multiple Hikvision and Dahua cameras.
Speedier deployment and fewer trips to the rack, since multiple cameras can be discovered, activated and configured on site. Suitable for bulk installations and routine maintenance checks.
Clear on-site video verification - with 5-inch IPS display and multi-input support
5-inch 1920x1080 IPS touch screen displays H.265 and H.264 IP streams, plus 4K HDMI and SDI input for analogue and digital sources, with 4x zoom, snapshot, record and playback capabilities.
Accurate framing, focus checks and immediate evidence capture are possible without carrying extra monitors or laptops. Useful when confirming camera angle and image quality before finalising installation.
Precise cable fault finding and reporting - with RJ45 TDR and cable tracer
Built-in TDR tests RJ45 pair status, length, attenuation, reflectivity, impedance and skew, and can pinpoint near-end, mid-end and far-end faults while saving test reports. Cable tracer function helps identify unlabeled runs.
Faster localisation of broken or miswired cables reduces diagnostic time in server rooms and installations. Saved reports provide a record for handover or troubleshooting.
