Cables To Go 29400 CableTracker Network ID Kit measurement tool

SKU CH-Y8F9-8CMW8 MPN 29400

A network cable identification kit with Port ID blinking and traditional tone tracing for active and inactive circuits

  • Port ID blinks link light to verify connectivity on active networks
  • Three blink rates ensure compatibility with equipment from various manufacturers
  • Traditional toning with two frequencies traces non-active circuits
  • Auto power down extends battery life with low battery indicator
  • Probe includes volume control and non-conductive plastic tip

Network ID kit for active LAN tracing

The CableTracker Network ID Kit model 29400 is designed for network managers and technicians who need to trace and identify cables on live networks. It combines a toner and probe with a Port ID function that blinks the link light to verify connectivity without disrupting traffic. This kit suits professionals working with active LAN circuits where traditional toning alone is insufficient.

Port ID blink rates and toning limits

The Port ID feature offers three blink rates to maintain compatibility with a wide range of switch and hub manufacturers. Toning an active LAN circuit can disrupt network traffic and is difficult to track due to cable twist and tone bleed. Traditional toning with two frequencies and patterns is provided for non-active circuit tracing instead.

Replaces basic toner kits for live networks

This kit upgrades from basic toner sets that lack Port ID capability and cannot safely identify cables on active networks. The jump is worth it when technicians must verify switch or hub port assignments on live circuits without service interruption. It is not for buyers who only trace dead or disconnected cables.
