Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor quality - improper test As a testing tool, it is clear that these units are not 100% quality assured at the factory making them practically useless for onsite. Tested with multiple cables and has permanent fault on one wire channel.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Did the job. Fitted ethernet to garden office 50 mtrs from router. Bought this to check connections. Worked a treat, so simple to use, brilliant.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from It didn’t even switch on This was bought a year ago and it was left unopened. I finally got to use it a few days back but it didn’t switch on when a new battery was used power it up. I thought it was a faulty battery so I went and bought a new battery which also didn’t work. I went to return it to Screwfix but they couldn’t do anything because it was over the warrenty period. So I just spent £6 on two batteries and now I have to buy a new tester. Waste of time and money.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Works but not the best Cheap feel and not convinced it’ll last. The slow down function only worked after wiggling the switch. The sockets weren’t the best either meaning the cables gave no reading if moved. The battery terminals were tight and I struggled to remove the battery without damaging the connector. Why remove the battery you ask, because I feel the need to return it and buy a more substantial one. Hope this helps, cheap enough if you don’t plan on giving it much use.

How does this work? Will it tell you what end the fault is?

Asked by: Beets101
There are a about 9 leds in a row, they each flash in sequence 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and ground. On both units If a wire is broken or not connected then the led won't light up, if wire 4 is broken then the leds will light, 1,2,3, ,5,6,7,8, on both units, so much easy to find a fault

POE

will this tester function ok if POE is present? (not looking for it to test POE) However my last Cat5/6 tester burnt out when connected to the wrong connection on the network
Asked by: Obelix
The same issue may well happen if using this cable Tester as it is designed to test non powered cables.

Testing sockets

Is it possible to use a known good cat5 5e or 6 patch cable from the device to insert into an RJ45 jack?
Asked by: JonP123
The Philex Network Cable Tester can be used as above, but both Master and Remote parts would need to be in use in the same wiring circuit.
