Review on πŸ”Œ UbiGear Network/Phone Cable Tester + RJ11/RJ12/RJ22/RJ45 Crimp Crimper +100 RJ45 CAT5 CAT5e Connector Plug Network Tool Kits (Crimper315) – Premium Networking Equipment for Efficient Cable Testing and Crimping by Stephen Burgstaller

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The tester in the photo did not send, he received CH-178 and instructions for NS-468.

Crimping tool works fine but the cable tester shown in the photo is not the cable tester that I received. The picture on the product and even the instructions I received for the cable tester refer to the NS-468 which describes the need for a 9V battery, but the model received is the CH-178 which comes with 2 AAA batteries seems to work. I searched the internet for this Ubigear tester model and couldn't find any instructions. When I turn on the tester with AAA batteries, the ground indicator turns red, and when I connect the factory cable, it only scans the numbers highlighted in red and never turns green. The crimping tool and RJ-45 connectors are worth the price. In order not to annoy myself with the return, I had really hoped to get a halfway usable tester. At least it would be nice to get the right guide for the wrong tester.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Some difficulties
