Basic but effective

A handy network cable tester for checking your home installation. The scrolling LEDs allow you to test each pair of wires one by one.

no longer works after testing 6 cables

As usual with LDLC, package received very quickly. However, tester KO'd after only 6 tests. I'm really embarrassed to continue my tests. It's not expensive, but it's very fragile. I'm not sure if it's a good one or not, but I'm sure it's a good one. Too bad

        Network cable tester

        My order met my expectations, but the device, which works perfectly, seems rather fragile.

        well

        For the price, this product does the job. Easy to use and very practical to check its wiring and avoid problems due to an involuntary crossing.

        Do the job

        Simple, functional, the on/off switch is hard to operate and leaves some doubt as to its longevity.

        Continuity test OK

        Does a good job of testing continuity, unfortunately does not allow you to check the quality of the connection (100mbps or 1000 mbps), which is what I was hoping for, but it is not expensive...

        Effective

        2 small, efficient boxes for testing cables wire by wire.

        So far it works well.

        Does the job

        It does its job.
        Two stars less as the finish is a bit light and the ON/OFF switch is already giving me problems. The switch will not go the distance but it will be very easy to bypass it. For this price, you shouldn't ask too much.

        Good product

        Does its job as an RJ 45 and RJ 11 cable tester
        A little plus for the ability to split it in two to test cables that run from one room to another in the house.

        Network cable tester

        Does the job nicely.
        Tested a 50m cable with no visibility of the ends.
        Very satisfactory result; faults detected (inversion and non-continuity)

        Does the work that is asked of it.

        Does the job it is asked to do.
        Useful for checking cables that you have both ends next to you, it is not the same for testing an RJ45 socket located 50 metres from the patch bay.
        For its price, it does provide good service.

        Does its job

        I used it to test cables and find out which wires were being misplugged by a Legrand car plug, it was quick and efficient; I couldn't have done without it.

        The synchronised scrolling also allows you to check if a cable is straight or crossed, or even badly mounted. Note that the LDLC sheet talks about manual or auto scrolling mode, on mine there is only auto scrolling. But that's enough.

        After that, it's 100% plastic, so it does the job, but it's not a construction tool. Mine works with a 9V battery.

        Useful for occasional use

        Useful for testing an installed cable with remote ends.

        Nice storage bag.

        Lightweight construction but should be sufficient for occasional use.

        The only downside is that the test sequence is a little fast and the separation of the indicator lights is not perfect, so you may think that one light is on when it is actually the other.

        useful

        Thank you LDLC for the fast delivery.

        It works well.
        I only used it once, but it helped me understand how my electrician had broken down the RJ45 cables to run Gigabit in some rooms of the house and 100M+phone in others.

        Perfect

        Ideal solution to quickly test your network cabling: easy to use and effective for a very attractive price. LDLC delivery is always impeccable. Think of the 0.15m RJ45 cable to test the wall sockets.

        Does the job

        The device does the job well.

        After all, it's plastic, but for this price you shouldn't expect a very robust case.

        We'll have to see how it performs over time but for now it's ok.

        Perfect for quickly testing your network

        Very useful product to quickly test your network
        Works very well, easy to use
        LDLC = fast and hassle free delivery!
        Don't forget to take 0.15m RJ45 cords to connect to the wall sockets
        Thanks again

        Useful and effective.

        Very useful and effective product.
        A very good quality/price ratio.
        It's a pity that it lacks two small cables to connect it to the wall sockets.
        LDLC => fast delivery and sound no worries.
        The product and service are to be recommended.
