April 17, 2012 – Ideal Industries Networks (the networking technology division of Ideal Industries Inc.) says has reduced the cost-of-ownership for network cable testers by offering special promotional pricing on its SignalTEK Gigabit ethernet certifiers.

“For any contractor or IT manager who is on the fence about buying a Gigabit certifier, this is a huge motivation to buy now,” said Dan Payerle, business unit manager for Ideal Industries Networks. “We are giving customers every incentive to pick up a SignalTEK, from an amazing new price to including with the tester our industry-leading warranties, software, and customer service.”

SignalTEK is designed to verify that installed cabling can support bandwidth-heavy voice, video and data applications. This hand-held tester will stream live 10/100/1000 Mbps ethernet packets to simulate real-world traffic on the network, then measure errors on the link in accordance with IEEE 802.3ab. The tester also supports Bit Error Rate Testing (BERT) for VoIP, data and video over-IP applications.

Effective immediately—for as long as supplies last—the promotional prices are:

• SignalTEK Copper (#33-974C) list price has been reduced 52% from $1342 US to $650 US.
