Klein Tools VDV501-852 Cable Tester with Remote, VDV Scout Pro 3 Test Kit Locates and Tests Voice, Data and Video Cables

I bought this crap Klein Tools VDV501-853 only work with two cables, after that everything fails, even a small cable that comes with a tester failed all. I try all 6 Test + Map, failed. Not sure bad tester or Chinese crap. Requesting for return

Was able to troubleshoot and find an issue with cat5e that my normal pinout tester didnt catch since the pin out was correct but there was an issue with the cable itself.

Connected to a ethernet cable it showed exactly what was wired wrong.

This does not only test your ethernet cable it also tells you the length. I use HDMI extenders, this helps me to set EQ settings. Great product!

Ive been having intermittent Ethernet issues for a couple years. Sometimes multiple times in a day, sometimes not for a couple weeks.

It seems to be a great tool but it’s hard to learn how to use all the functions and I’ve been doing av for 20 yrs. They have packed to many functions into single buttons. More buttons would be nicer. With that said I’m returning this for another one because shipping smashed the screen and the digital digits are messed up. After receiving second one .’. It all works fine

Product probably works fantastic but I received a very obviously used item.

Perfect product.

The image shows that the included mapers was able to check the cable if it property terminated.

Used to test long runs of cat5 cable worked perfect found an open pair right away saved hours of troubleshooting
