Ideal Industries announces its partnership with leading LAN distributor Cablelines. Through the partnership Cablelines will promote Ideal’s range of datacomm test products to the UK LAN installation market. With immediate effect Cablelines will be distributing Ideal’s popular LANTEK® range of certification testers, the VDV multimedia cable tester and Ideal’s first active network tester, NAVITEK™.

Established in 1983 as a distributor of computer cables, Cablelines is one of the UK's leading sources for structured wiring and network connectivity products. The company offers a range of products from a select number of world leading manufacturers. This focus enables it to offer total support to its customers, extensive product and technical knowledge and support.

Cablelines Managing Director Peter Pearson said: “We wanted to be in a position to offer our customers the best possible LAN certification solutions. Through this partnership we can meet the demand from our customers for high quality product capability through Ideal’s range of innovative, functional, reliable and competitively-priced test equipment.”

“Ideal’s LANTEK® solution is an established product range with additional functionality not found in other LAN certifiers. The units employ advanced technology that enables the use of standard patch cords for Permanent link testing instead of bulky, expensive test adapters or personality modules. We’re pleased to be able to offer it as part of our product portfolio,” comments Paul Rigby, Senior Product Manager, Cablelines.

“We are very pleased to have Cablelines on board as our distribution partner. For more than 20 years Cablelines has built a strong reputation on technical excellence and reliability, and has extensive experience of selling LAN certifiers to its customers in the LAN tester distribution market,” comments Jason Holroyd, LAN Sales Manager NW Europe, Ideal Industries.

Ideal’s LANTEK® 7G is a new upgraded version of the popular LANTEK® 7 certification tester and is the world’s first handheld LAN cable certifier to test up to 1GHz. The new simple-to-operate VDV multimedia cable tester enables comprehensive identification and verification of voice, data and video networks. NAVITEK™ is Ideal’s first active network tester and is a comprehensive handheld network diagnostic tool that can identify and correct common problems related to the physical layers of local area networks (LANs).
