Softing Psiber CableMaster PoE Network Cable Tester with PoE Detection and Load Test 226102

Network cable tester with integrated PoE detection and load test, capable of verifying cable integrity, measuring length, and identifying PoE parameters up to IEEE 802.3bt. The Softing Psiber CableMaster PoE is a professional handheld tester for RJ45 data cables and coaxial connections, combining wiremap, length measurement, tone generation, and PoE analysis in one rugged device. Its backlit LCD displays clear pin-to-pin wiremaps and PoE voltage/power readings, while the built-in port flasher helps locate connected switch ports.

Advantages

The CableMaster PoE streamlines network troubleshooting by providing instant verification of cable continuity, length, and PoE availability. With support for IEEE 802.3af/at/bt, it detects PSE type, class, and measures actual voltage and power under load, ensuring connected devices receive sufficient power. The graphical wiremap identifies opens, shorts, miswires, and split pairs at a glance. Its tone generator with multiple tones works with standard inductive probes for cable tracing, and the included remote identifiers allow one-person testing of multiple drops.
