Looking for a good but not expensive cat 5e cat6 cable tester
Hi,
I need to test cat5e and cat6 cables so I need a tester and a sensor (with a separated loop back).
I use to have a Fluke Microscanner MicroTest TWP Network Cable Tester Verifier at my other company but here the budget is lower so what comparable functions for under 200$ device would you suggest including a tone probe.
Thanks for the inputs!

I don't see a tone generator on it and it seems to do a lot less then the Fluke Microscanner??
You asked for inexpensive. For the features you are asking for it gets pricier.
Take a look through these and see where your features and price point match up.

What you quoted was around 20$ but I am ready to look at around 200$

I took the Klein and the fluke intellitone pro 100
I received the fluke and it's great. It does analog, digital tone and ohms coax rj11 rj45 and regular clamps and just waiting for the Klein for the other functions needed
Thanks for the inputs!
