Fluke has some units they call CAT8 testers.

I want one, but that can certify the newer standards of 2.5 and 5Ghz over Cat6.

 

Anyone seen anything like that?

I will take a look at that.  Yes, GigE is needed.

I have a Fluke DTX1800 that I like but it is a bit pricey. It certifies to gigE 
and that may be more than you want. If you have a customer that wnats a printed 
certification of building wiring it can be handy.

  Looking for a 10/100/1000 tester that will do NEXT, FEXT, capacitance, CRC 
BER etc etc.  

  Used to use an EXFO for this but that tester is gone and my Ideal tester is 
lacking a few parameters.

  Looking over the EXFO website, there are way too many units and most of them 
have a fiber focus.  

   

  Anybody have a favorite they would recommend?
