Cable Testers and Tracers
Cable testers and tracers cover test devices that check that the cores in data and signal cables are connected in the correct order and without breaks, and cable tracers that find the route by following, with a receiver, the signal a transmitter sends into the cable. They are used to test RJ45 terminations in structured cabling, to find the right line in an unlabeled bundle of cables, and to look for breaks and short circuits. This category includes Unit network cable testers that test RJ45, RJ11 and BNC connections, an HDMI cable tester, cable tracer sets with a transmitter and receiver, and a cable tester with TDR capability. The product features state open-circuit, short-circuit and cross-connection tests and the distinction between shielded and unshielded Ethernet cable. Choose a device by the cable and connector type you will test, whether you need line tracing in addition to wiring sequence testing, your need for cable length measurement and the supply type. A cable tester that shows core order and continuity is not a certification device that measures a line's speed and category performance.
