INTRODUCTION 

 

Hobbes manufacturer has successfully leveraged Digital Signal Process (DSP) and 

high-speed mixed signal expertise to develop the first low-cost Gigabit Cross-Over Cable tester. 

GIGA-X helps deliver trouble-free Gigabit Ethernet deployments.  It maps comprehensive 

network layouts for 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet physical layer, for use over Category-5 

twisted pair copper cables. 

 

GIGA-X is a single-port transceiver, which is able to identify 

cable length, “On-Line/Off-line”, 

cable pair faults, network device speeds, and connections status.   

The results are then displayed 

on the LED.

 

 

 

An economical and versatile tool, the GIGA-X complies with existing CATEGORIES IEEE 

standards. With GIGA-X, upgrading and installing Giga-bits devices and cables in 10/100BASE-T 

environments will be easier, faster, and more effective.    The GIGA-X is also beneficial for minor 

changes in a 10/100/1000BASE-T infrastructure upgrades. 

 

FEATURES 

 

 

On-line speed and connection status 

 

10/100/1000BASE-T device speed auto-negotiation 

 

Measure length of cable by pair/s (in meters) 

 

Detect open or short status on cables or device ports 

 

Identify crossover cable and TX/RX auto switch ports   

 

Low Battery indicator 

 

Power ON LEDs self-test
