- A Bit on the Video:
I decided to kick off my interest publically in network engineering, I thought I'd do a review on all the tools I use for making RJ45 ethernet cables!

I use EVERYday! Absolutely love . Must for any IT professional.
One thing you didn't mention was that you can change which pins are being toned. In your example you pushed the signal over all the wires which might have impacted the tone range. From my testing it appears that sending down pins 4 & 5 together provided a stronger signal at the end of a 74 ft cable. You can also use other brand tone probes with the cable tester, I already had a Fluke probe which picked up the signal.
Thanks Man! Picking UO these tools tomorrow for a job that came up. Wasn't sure if they were a gimmick or not, but now I'm convinced.
Great Content
Just a FYI the Hub feature is to help you ID cables that are plugged into a switch etc because you cant tone them if they are plugged in.
Thanks for the video though :)
Yeah I wondered wtf he was doing with the toner 😂. Klein has a pretty decent setup for the money. If I money to throw away I’d probably go with the fluke networks stuff, but with what the Klein stuff does I can get by just fine.
I use this set of tools, Dey do fail a bit but overall, it good for it price, my boss use fluke network and expensive collections of fluke network, but for someone on budget, this is pretty good enough
As far as I'm tracking it's not "what it should be and what it is" the top is the top plug and the bottom is the bottom or remote plug when reading the layout
I have this same tester Scout Pro 3 it does tell if network cable is POE.
Awesome video. Thanks!
Those pass through crimpers never cut the wires fully. Always the w/o and brown
It is a pretty nice deal
here is a question , if one end of the rj45 is faulty or crimped wrong , will it say on what side ?
It will not tell you the side it's faulty on, but it will tell you what pair(s) are crossed though.
It will tell you by the numbers. So the top list of digits is what it should be, the bottom is what yours are (the ones you or someone else made) aka faulty if there is one. They should match the top.
