RJ45 Network Cable Tester and Tracer, VXSCAN NF-8209S Ethernet Cable Tester Wire Tracer with NCV & Lamp for CAT5 CAT6 CAT6a - Cont/Length Measurement/SCAN/Flash/QC/NCV/POE Tester

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I've got a pricey Fluke tester for basic network cable testing, and services like DHCP and DNS. But I needed something that could test POE without breaking the bank. This helped me narrow down two of three bad switches at a client when a POE based access point rollout was done. Worked great, and the price was absolutely low.

Works well, cable length measurement is off, but tracer, PoE, port flash and continuity work well.

This cable tester gets the basic job done for a do-it-yourselfer. However, the unit has multiple ports each of which seems to perform a different function. Why not have one port do everything? It wouldn't be so bad, but the instruction book is essentially useless leaving you do do trial-and-error to figure the thing out. But, hey, the price was right.

Works great. The digital and analog wire detection is a bit to sensitive. If you have a bundle of wires they all will seem to signal.

Very good product, provide better instructions.

Good tester for the money

It will only work on specific protocols and not for a starlink poe kit, would not give a pin out on with pins had voltage

Easy to use and covers all tests required on ethernet cable.

Buen producto, sin embargo tengo una pregunta: al probar cable de red en pantalla aparecen dos letras: R y M y el número de pares en cada una de dichas letras, primero, que significan las letras? Es posible saber que terminal de las dos extremos RJ 45 es la del problema cuando reporta error? Gracias.

Brilliant bit of kit. I'm an Electrician so only use it to find cables with the tone. Found them i did

Easy to use and value for money.
