Network Cable Tester LogiLink WZ0017

LogiLink HDMI Cable Tester WZ0017 is a handheld tester for checking installed or bulk HDMI cables. The tester includes a main unit and a remote unit and connects via two HDMI A plugs to verify all conductor pairs and shielding. It is battery powered (9 V block battery not included) and offers both visual and audible indicators to show connection status and faults.

Advantages

The compact ergonomic design makes the tester portable and easy to handle on-site. A single-button operation allows quick testing without setup. LEDs provide clear indication of connection status and fault location, while optical and acoustical signals give immediate feedback. The included remote unit lets you test a complete cable run after installation.
