New Upgraded Network Cable Tester Optical Power Meter VFL, RJ11 RJ45 Cable Tracker for Phone, Ethernet, Video, Tone Generator, CAT5 CAT6 Cable Toner Ethernet Cable Tester PoE

[UPDATE - 18Nov2025) Another use for this kit just came around. I was watching videos on guys repairing LED Christmas lights. Some use an NCV (Non-Contact Voltage) detector. I realized that this kit has a dual detector, for both Network signals AND voltage. In fact, there's an NCV button on it. I took it to a string of LEDs where one side is out and sure enough, this was able to detect where the voltage stopped. That was the bad LED! Seriously, I really like this kit and do highly recommend it. After having this now for a few months and using it with every cable I ran (and i ran, so far, over 16 CAT6 Solid Copper) I can say that this product is just excellent! Sometimes I had unexpected issues with the crimping tool, where, it seemed ok, but when on the network, it would totally fail or be "glitchy." This meter was able to detect the issue! Not only that, where the little cheap tester would say that the cable had good continuity, this meter could detect that it did not. In fact, I had a few times where the crimper caused a very light "short" in the wires (or even crossed the wires in the connector). Not only was this meter able to find it, but it was even able to confirm which end of the cable had the issue. Another feature that turns out to be seriously necessary is the Length test. I had a few cables that the meter reported as having a short. But where!? Well, what I did was to test length from each end, one at a time. The numbers reported revealed where the short was! Example, from one end, let's say, 6 wires tested the correct length, while 2 were not right, or tested as crossed or open. But test at the other end, now we had numbers that revealed which side the issue was on. In one case, I had a run that was about 40'. I hadn't noticed that the cable got a twist (kink) in it, but when the cable failed, the tester, using length from each end, revealed approximately where it was. I pulled the cable and sure enough, the kink was visible! I was able to cut the wire there, put a new connector on and problem solved. I also got to use the scanner function as my markers on a few cables fell off. I was easily able to confirm which wire at the wall was the wire going into the router. It just works! Seriously, if you are going to do a big job, like I did here with a full-house rewiring job, this device is a must-have! ________________ original review follows ________________________ I've had this for a few days now and I've tested cables in our setup. I'm very impressed how well this works and how many features it has at this price point. I have to do a full wiring of our house, greenhouse and garage, so this will be a necessity to test all connectors and wires. I do recommend this tester.

The cable test do not work, no reply from manufacturer after complaining and refuse to exchange do not buy except if you want a useless piece of equipment

Very useful and has a lot of functions. The head phones look cheap tho.

I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting a whole lot from this set, since some of the things advertised generally require much more expensive and far more accurate tools. However, I was pleasantly surprised how good it actually is. I really like the dual mode wire tracer (Digital and Analog tone out) and the cable length measurement is actually quite accurate. I tested the fiber functionality and it also seems to be good. I purposely tested a known good fiber and then damaged it by hitting it with a hammer over the edge of my bench and it detected the change in light. It seems like it would be fairly durable and it has decent battery life and charged fairly fast. Is it a Fluke killer? No. But it's accurate enough for 99% of my day to day IT work.
