A maintenance update for the Pockethernet 2 app fixes UI-related issues that could cause unexpected termination during the Error Rate test.

Another long standing request fulfilled: We’re offering silicone protective sleeves for your device so that it survives drops from heights without a scratch. Available in 5 colors.

Over 10 years after it’s release we’re proud to still support the original v1 Pockethernet. Customers are still loving and using it, which means wiremap adapters get lost. Since we can’t manufacture the old ones any more, we have created a firmware update that allows the v1 devices to recognize the v2 adapters. This way, we can continue supplying the much needed spare part, letting users continue using their devices.

This update extends the DHCP timeout to 48 seconds for non-portfast switch ports, fixes the device MAC address display, and resolves UI-related stability issues.

The Wiremap ID set with IDs 2-7 are available in our webshop for everyone needing quick identification of multiple drops without running back and forth

Pockethernet 2 app v14 follows the major firmware v17 release with support for Wiremap IDs, Error Rate testing with the loopback adapter, Pockethernet v1 wiremap adapter support as ID 0, improved PoE detection on some Cisco switches, all-pair toning, expanded CDP reporting, and fixes for online manual opening and Wiremap detection. Firmware v17 or higher is required for some features.

Firmware v17 and app v14 introduce support for Wiremap IDs, Error Rate measurement with the loopback adapter, and use of the original Pockethernet v1 wiremap adapter as ID 0. The release also improves PoE detection on some Cisco switches, adds all-pair toning for higher volume during cable tracing, expands CDP reporting with Power Available and IPv6 management address fields, and fixes online manual opening on iOS 15+.

Two long awaited and much requested accessories have been released: The Pockethernet v2 Dual Terminator supports Wiremap and Error Rate testing, with a passive loopback for cables up to 50 m / 160 ft. The Wiremap ID Set includes seven adapters with IDs 2–8, making it easier to identify multiple cable runs.

App v10 fixes IPv6 measurement display and adds a warning when Toner or Blinker is still enabled while starting a new measurement.

App v9 introduces the Traffic feature, showing samples of received packets with source and destination MAC addresses. It also improves Static IP and VLAN tag input handling.

App v8 displays VLAN IDs with Priority and DEI flags, fixes report sharing on the latest iOS versions, and fixes taking pictures for reports on the latest iOS versions.

App v7 improves report entry by including report fields without requiring users to press OK, and fixes report header naming.

Bugfix release

Release of the new Pockethernet 2 app, marking a milestone for the second-generation Pockethernet device and its redesigned mobile workflow.

After years of research and development, we’re proud to release Pockethernet 2, the successor of the popular original Pockethernet device! Feature highlights are Multi-Gbit link detection, increased TDR resolution with crosstalk display, PoE supply type detection and load testing, support for Wiremap IDs and IPv6 plus all the other features you already know and love.

The start of Pockethernet. After a successful crowdfunding campaign, we began finalizing the design and development of the original Pockethernet which was launched in 2015.
