Paladin Tools 1574 LAN Cable Check

The Paladin Tools 1574 is a 13 inch continuity tester designed for UTP and flat satin cables terminated with RJ45 connectors. It verifies both data and telephone wiring schemes on patch cords and installed runs. The unit identifies good connections, opens, shorts and cross-connections. Two scan speeds and a 9V battery are included in a nylon case.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This tool suits installers and technicians who need a portable way to confirm RJ45 continuity on twisted-pair or flat cables. It is not for buyers who require certification-level reports or fibre-optic testing. It is also not for users who need automated documentation or Power over Ethernet load verification.

What to check before ordering

Confirm that the cables you test use RJ45 terminations compatible with the tester ports. Ensure you have access to both ends of installed runs for the remote unit. Verify that a 9V battery is acceptable for your maintenance routine. The included patch cords cover basic patch-cord checks.

Questions about this item

Does the Paladin Tools 1574 tester require a separate power source, or is the 9V battery included ready for immediate use?

A 9V battery is included with the tool, so no separate power source is needed before the first test.

Can the 1574 LAN Cable Check verify continuity on older flat satin telephone cables that use RJ45 plugs?

Yes, the tester is designed for both UTP data cables and flat satin cables terminated with RJ45 connectors, covering legacy telephone wiring.

How do the LED indicators on the 1574 show that a patch cord passes the continuity test at both scan speeds?

The tool scans each pin at slow or fast speed; a full set of matching LEDs confirms good connections, while specific patterns reveal opens, shorts or cross-connections.
