LAN Network Cable Testers

                Managing an Ethernet Network System can be very disheartening depending on the size of the system. Most systems are housed in a central location with cables running wild as if Hulkamania was in full effect. (You’d have to say your prayers and eat your vitamins to find anything.) Being able to get accurate cable lengths or even seeing which cables run where can be a nightmare.

      Accurately finding network cable length, opens, and shorts is the bread and butter of many a business. The T3 Innovation SS200 Snap Shot does this perfectly, making it a….Snap. All bad puns aside, this lightweight (12ozs!) tester uses Spread Spectrum Time Domain Reflectometry to bring TDR technology into the 21^st Century.

Providing clients with proof that your work is installed properly is becoming more and more commonplace. Companies spend a lot of money to have networks installed in their offices and they want some guarantee that things are what you say they are. The Byte Brothers Real World Certifier does exactly that. In some respects, the RWC1000K is similar to the LVPRO3 that I reviewed last week.

Have you ever had $100 in your pocket and asked yourself, “Man, I’d really love a high quality Cable Tester, but all I have is $100”? Well, have I got news for you sonny! The VDV Scout Pro Tester Kit is a great Cable Tester and can easily be found for under $100.

Hello all,

Going into this assignment, I will be honest, I didn’t know much about this tester, but after doing my research, I have come to be a big fan. This tester crams up to 14 different test apps into one unit that can handle just about any job you throw at it.

First things first, let’s get the essentials out of the way,
