Wiremap, length and service detection on RJ11/RJ45/coax.
These are different products. Check their specifications separately.
MS-POE MicroScanner PoE Model: MS-POE
Adds PoE class 0-8 verification and powered-pair display.
Verifying switch PoE class and passive PoE voltage.
Purchase links appear where the exact offer is verified. Confirm the named model, quantity and accessories before ordering.
Watch out
MS2-100 reports wiremap and lengths but does not certify bandwidth; for pass/fail certification look to a CableIQ or DSX-class tool.
PoE class reporting belongs to the MicroScanner PoE model, not the MS2-100.
Industrial Ethernet kits (MS2-100-IE and up) add M12/M8 adapters and probes for factory cabling.
Why people pick it
One screen shows wiremap, pair lengths, distance to fault, cable ID and far-end device — no toggling between test modes
Built-in IntelliTone digital and analog toning locates cables even in bundles or high-interference environments
Detects far-end services: POTS voltage and polarity, 10/100/1000 switch presence and PoE
Tests RJ11, RJ45 and coax from built-in jacks without adapters, and ships with a carry pouch and batteries
Know before you buy
A copper-cable verifier, not a certification tester: it reports wiremap and lengths, not pass/fail bandwidth limits
No fiber, USB or USB-C test capability
Coax testing is on the MS2 series only in this form; PoE class reporting (0-8) belongs to the sibling MicroScanner PoE model
Fluke's page lists no numeric length-accuracy or VDV-voltage accuracy figures for the MS2-100
Full specifications
Cable types
RJ11, RJ45 and coax (coax on MS2 only) with built-in jacks — no adapters needed
Wiremap
Graphical display of shorts, opens and crossed wires at both ends
Length
Length of each pair and distance to fault, shown on the same screen as the wiremap
Cable ID
Reports the far-end cable ID
Toning
Built-in IntelliTone digital and analog toning to locate cables or wire pairs; digital mode works on Cat 5e, 6, 6a in bundles and in high-interference environments, and pairs with the IntelliTone 200 Pro Probe to verify wiremap from either end
Service detection
VDV detection of POTS voltage and polarity, powered 10/100/1000 Ethernet switches at the far end, and PoE availability and voltage
Cat 3, 5, 5e, 6, 6A per TIA-568-C.2, TIA-1005; Class C/D/E/EA per ISO/IEC 11801:2002; 10BASE-T to 10GBASE-T per IEEE 802.3
A hand-held copper cable certification tester that certifies twisted-pair structured cabling from Cat 3 / Class C through Cat 6A / Class EA, with a 10-second Cat 6A autotest, HDTDR/HDTDX fault diagnostics and LinkWare reporting.
TIA Cat 3–6A, ISO/IEC Class C–EA, 10BASE-T to 10GBASE-T
A copper cabling certification tester covering Cat 3 through Cat 6A / Class EA with 10-second autotests, HDTDR/HDTDX diagnostics, and LinkWare Live management over Wi-Fi.
Fluke Networks' flagship Versiv copper cable certifier for Cat 5e through Cat 8 / Class I/II to 2000 MHz, with Level VI/2G accuracy, 8-second Cat 6A tests and built-in alien crosstalk measurement.
