CI: 1) What is the top product at the PacRad InfoComm 2019 booth this year, and what makes it unique or special?
MSOLUTIONS MS104B HDBaseT Tester!
The MS104B is a battery based handheld tool that provides in-field testing of HDBaseT cabling and systems. The MS-TestPro is designed specifically for AV installers, integrators and technicians.
A newly added feature enables users of the solution to generate a certification report on the quality of each cable installed, thereby simplifying the installation of HDBaseT networks.
The MS-TestPro generates a report after a very brief test, indicating the quality of various installation parameters; these include detailed information about link quality, link status of the transmitter and receiver, pixel clock, HDBaseT link chip type, and cable length. In addition, user-friendly graphs summarizing the overall information are generated.
CI: 2) What other products or offerings at the PacRad InfoComm booth would you like to highlight, and what are some of their unique qualities?
The MS-Test Pro DC Resistance and Looper modules: These can test the DC resistance of CATx cables, and check their ability to provide a sufficient level of PoH (Power over HDBaseT) powering.
The DC Resistance can test:
- Loop Resistance
- Parallel DC Resistance Unbalanced
- Pair to Pair Resistance Unbalanced
