Pros and cons

Pros

Multiple listed test and tracing functions can help identify LAN cable faults and locate ports without switching between separate tools.
CAT5 and CAT6 STP and UTP compatibility suits common Ethernet installation and maintenance tasks.
The listing states a length range of 1.5–200 meters, alongside open- and short-circuit detection.

Cons

Customer feedback reports concerns about build quality and durability, including reports of units breaking after a short period.
Customer opinions on accuracy and length measurement are mixed, so results may warrant confirmation for measurement-critical work.

What to know before buying

The listing describes PoE testing up to 60V DC and separately lists a 60 Volts minimum operating voltage and 1000 Volts maximum operating voltage. It also gives an NCV range of 50V-1000V. These voltage details are not clearly reconciled, so confirm the intended operating limits and follow the product instructions before testing. The claimed 99% length accuracy is a listing claim, not independently established, and feedback on measurement accuracy varies.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

Home users and network installers tracing CAT5 or CAT6 runs and checking continuity or open and short circuits.
Technicians who want PoE checks, NCV detection and port flashing as well as basic cable tracing.
Buyers who can treat length readings as a troubleshooting aid and verify critical measurements.

Less suited to

Buyers who need consistently dependable measurement accuracy without independently confirming results.
People who prioritise established durability, given reported build-quality and breakage concerns.

Customer feedback describes the tester as useful for cable tracking and good value, with a reported use case in home surveillance and network installations. Opinions on accuracy and length measurement are mixed, while feedback also raises build-quality and durability concerns, including reports of breakage after a few weeks. For basic tracing and fault-finding, those measurement concerns matter less than they would for work relying on precise cable-length readings. The aggregate ratings are generally positive but include a meaningful spread of lower ratings, so they do not remove these reported cautions.

Positive themes

Customers report useful cable tracking and good value.

Negative themes

Customer feedback raises concerns about build quality and durability, including reports of units breaking after a couple of weeks.

Mixed feedback

Customer feedback is divided on measurement accuracy and cable-length results.
