Toning an active LAN circuit can disrupt network traffic and is difficult to track due to cable twist and tone bleed. The Psiber Cable Tracker Tone & Probe solves both these problems. Not only can it tone and trace inactive wiring, including highly twisted Cat 5e & Cat 6, but it can also detect and send link activation signals for tracing active drops to a Hub or NIC card!

Designed specifically for network managers and datacom technicians, the Cable Tracker Tone & Probe Kit features a unique Port ID function blinks the link light to identify a connected hub or switch port and provides a simple method to identify switch or hub port assignments on active networks. Three different blink rates ensure compatibility with equipment from a wide range of manufacturers.

When tracing inactive wiring, a unique split pair toning capability allows tone to easily propagate through highly twisted Cat 5e and Cat 6 wiring. In addition, two user selectable audible tone patterns are provided for inactive circuit tracing.

The Psiber Network Toner has a female RJ-45 connector for easy network connection as well as alligator clips for connecting to a punch down block or unterminated cables. The toner also detects wiring shorts with its built-in continuity check. Auto power down extends battery life and a built-in low battery indicator warns when battery replacement is required.

The Psiber Probe incorporates volume control, non-conductive plastic tip, and is fully compatible with traditional toners.

Shipping weight of this kit is 2 pounds.
