The Fluke DSX CAT-8 CHANNEL ADAPTER SET, also known as the Class 8 cable channel adapter, should be noted to support certification testing for Class 8 cables and be compatible downwards. Once the RJ45 socket is damaged, it is basically impossible to replace it, which is a major difference from other channel adapters. If there is no need to test Class 8 cables during use, it is recommended that users switch to the original DSX-CHA004S testing module, which can greatly save costs. For more information, please call the technical department of Weixin Instruments.
