Multi-Function Cable Tester for Installers

The Tripp Lite T012-001-K combines a cable tester, wire tracker and tone generator in one kit. It targets network technicians and AV installers who need to identify specific cables, locate faults or verify wiring on the job site.

Tests RJ45 RJ11 and BNC with Wire Mapping

The unit performs wire mapping on RJ45 cables and detects shorts or breaks in non-powered wires across RJ45, RJ11 and BNC interfaces. It handles continuity checks and tone tracing but does not certify cable performance to any category standard or measure length or attenuation.

Battery Powered Probe with Flashlight and Headphones

The remote probe includes an LED flashlight for dark panels and the kit supplies headphones for audible tracing in noisy environments. Two 9V batteries power the tester and probe, and all components store in the included carrying case.

Questions about this item

Will the T012-001-K test the RJ45 patch cables I already use with my older switch?

Yes, the tester performs wire mapping on RJ45 cables and checks for shorts or breaks in non-powered wires.

How do I confirm the tone generator is tracing the right BNC run after I connect the alligator clips?

The wire tracker picks up the tone from the generator; use the included headphones to hear the signal clearly in noisy areas.

Does the kit include the 9V batteries and the remote probe, or must I buy them separately?

The package contains the tester, remote probe unit, RJ45 and RJ11 jumper cables, alligator clip adapter, headphones, two 9V batteries, carrying case and owner's manual.
