Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of cables can the Digital Line Tester test?
A: This Digital Line Tester supports RJ11 and RJ45 UTP/SSTP twisted-pair cables as well as coaxial cables. It also identifies 802.3af and 802.3at PoE standards and detects port power positions, making it suitable for network rooms, security setups, and low-voltage wiring projects.
Q: How does the NCV (Non-Contact Voltage) detection work?
A: The NCV function allows the tester to detect the presence of live voltage at 40V or above without making direct contact with the conductor. Simply hold the tester near a wire or cable — it will alert you if voltage is present, helping you work more safely around potentially energized circuits.
Q: Can I use this tester to trace cables inside walls or underground?
A: Yes! The Digital Line Tester is compatible with the UT683R Marker, enabling 125KHz interference-resistant cable tracing. This makes it well suited for locating buried or in-wall wires without destructive investigation.
Q: Is this tester suitable for home use or only professional settings?
A: This tester is designed to deliver professional-level results in both home and commercial settings. Its compact cylindrical design, intuitive LCD display, and plug-and-test operation make it accessible for DIY home network setups as well as professional IT and electrical installations.
