“I was amazed... this device was finished testing before I could even explain to one of my junior engineers what I was actually doing. I’ve been an engineer for more than 20 years and this device just gets me, it understands what my workflow truly is and what type of information I need to do my job.” Charles Morris, senior consultant at ACS, A Xerox Company

“After using the LinkRunner AT I can unquestionably say it will save this organization time and money while improving satisfaction. In fact, now that I’ve used it, I wouldn’t want to be without one.” – Thomas Franchina, Senior Systems Programmer, United Health Services

“Not only is the LinkRunner AT fast, but it’s incredibly thorough with the essential Ethernet connectivity tests I need. So while it speeds troubleshooting, it also gives me a high level of confidence in the results. If the unit says the connection is okay, I know it’s okay.” – John Heidelberg, Network Administrator, Jensen International

"This new tester speeds up troubleshooting as I never would have imagined.... especially for the price! For example you go to a station, plug it in, and in a few seconds you know not only that you have a link up, but you know the switch name that it's connected to, the switch port, the VLAN, etc. This is a huge time saver! Simply tracing a cable that is not labeled... or worse that is labeled wrong, can take hours. But with the LinkRunner AT1000 you know all the details... in a few seconds! I simply love it! Don't leave home without it!" – Guillaume P., Technician, BroadNetworx

View and Manage Test Results

Link-Live Reporting Mode

Enable the Link-Live Reporting Mode to have AutoTest results automatically uploaded to the Link-Live Cloud Service. This zero-touch reporting feature speeds and simplifies reporting and ensures that results are consistently saved. Append comments to each test result. You can even add an image to a test result – a photograph of the link under test for example. Results can be automatically saved to job-specific folders to simplify project management. Up to 10 results are held in memory in the absence of a network connection and uploaded later when a connection is available.

Link-Live Cloud Service

Link-Live provides important test results management and reporting capabilities, at no additional charge to the LinkRunner AT. It provides greater job visibility, project control, and fleet management for larger distributed environments. Test results are automatically sent to your secure Link-Live cloud account, providing organizations with a newfound ability to quickly and easily document their network, provide proof of performance and better manage jobs and staff efficiency. In addition, an e-mail of every test result is sent as it occurs, allowing the technician to annotate information about the test and even attached a photo. That annotation is then automatically added to that record in Link-Live, creating a very in-depth understanding as to the performance of each link and mapping endpoint images (wall jacks, devices, serial numbers) directly their switch slot and port.

Link-Live Cloud Service Features:

• Complementary, no annual service fees
• Manage, sort and analyze test results
• Filter results by time, user, network device, errors, instrument, and more
• Add comments or photos to any test result
• Automatic filing of tests into specific folders
• Proxy support
• Buffer up to 10 test results

Local Reporting Mode

Enable the Local Reporting Mode to facilitate saving of AutoTest results on the tester. Save each result with a unique name. The maximum number of saved results varies by LinkRunner AT model. Connect the tester to your PC via its mini-USB port and use the LinkRunner AT Manager Software to view and manage the saved results.

LinkRunner AT Manager Software

For AutoTest results saved locally on the tester via the Local Reporting Mode the LinkRunner AT Manager Software facilitates management and analysis of test results, test reports and testers. LinkRunner AT Manager Software is an application installed on a Windows(R) PC.

LinkRunner AT Manager Software features:

• View test results saved locally on the tester
• Move test results from the tester to a local drive
• Generate reports in PDF, CSV and HTML formats
• Configure AutoTest profiles
• Transfer AutoTest profiles between a tester and a local drive
• Capture screen images
• Update tester firmware
