Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What cable types does this RJ45 network cable tester support?

A: This tester supports a wide variety of cable types, including RJ45 (LAN/Ethernet), RJ11, RJ12, CAT5, CAT6, CAT7, and UTP wiring — making it a versatile tool for both network and telephone cable verification.

Q: How does the split-body (main + remote) design work?

A: The tester consists of two units — a main unit and a remote unit. You plug one end of the cable into the main unit and the other end into the remote unit. The LED indicators on both units sequence through each wire pair, allowing you to identify open circuits, shorts, or crossed wires even when testing cables installed at a distance.

Q: Is the RJ45 cable tester difficult to use for beginners?

A: Not at all. Simply connect your cable to both units and power on the device. The LED indicator sequence tells you immediately whether each wire is properly connected. No software, drivers, or technical expertise is required.

Q: Is this tester durable enough for professional use?

A: Yes. The tester is made from high-quality PC (polycarbonate) material, making it tough and wear-resistant for repeated daily professional use in the field or in the office.
