Review: This is the greatest data testing tool ever - I have saved so much time using this incredible kit from Ideal that I can not begin to explain all of the ways it has saved me hours of frustrating cable identification and pinout verification. The meter is extremely accurate and I love the ability to place tone easily on a cable which allows me to quickly identify the other end of the cable at another place in the house. I highly recommend this if you do this type of work on a regular basis. Well worth the money.
Review: Great - Worked perfectly for my needs. My house had CAT5 and coax run throughout and to a central patch panel when it was built but the cables were never labeled properly so it was impossible to tell in the panel what was what. Didn't take long with this tool to label everything and verify that all the CAT5 cables were punched down correctly - they weren't. Very handy to have around and comes with everything that you would conceivably need for home wiring of any kind.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ So far I really like the device
*by K***H on August 30, 2017*

So far I really like the device. It allows me to remove a tool from my bag by being both toner and tester. Both seem sturdy, like professional equipment should. I would prefer a little more recess on the buttons, to prevent the unit powering on while packed. Also know that after toning the line, the unit must he turned OFF before being connected to the cables for testing. For some reason, directly switching from toning to mapping causes inaccurate results. This small inconvenience is, for me, over ridden by the fact that it comes with all the cables and, works for cat, coax, and phone. Also, the fact that it comes with alligator clips and a bag is a nice bonus.
