DescriptionThe TES 46 is a LAN cable tester for network professionals and DIY users that can identify wiring faults and measure cable length. It is capable of testing several types of twisted-pair cables, including UTP, FTP, and coaxial cables, and verifying end-to-end connectivity according to the EIA/TIA 568 wiring standard. |
Key FeaturesTests for wiring errors: Detects common wiring problems such as opens, shorts, miswires (crossed, reversed, and split pairs). Fault localization: Can locate the distance to a fault like an open or short, which helps in pinpointing wiring errors with ease. Multiple identifiers: Uses remote identifiers to test and identify up to eight different cables from a single end. Cable length measurement: Features a length test mode that can measure cable length with an accuracy of up to 5%. Large LCD display: A two-line, 16-character LCD screen clearly displays the test results, including the wiring status and cable length. Protection: The inputs have over-voltage protection to prevent damage from accidental connection to a live electrical circuit. Port types: Supports RJ45 and BNC connectors. Auto power off: Features an automatic shut-off function to conserve battery life. |
