Trying to track several shielded 22 gauge 3 pair cables will this work.TRYED TWO DIFFERENT
232359
To be honest, I only use this device to track and test 4 pair cables on an active network. I don't find the trace to be very accurate, but my analog tester can't test in a live network. I would recommend the Fluke Pro 3000. Much cheaper and more accurate trace. You can clip on to the ends or use a plug adapter to connect.

Yes -with good battery. Observe solid/stable pair(s) number ,illuminated on probe, closest to tone generator to best assist you at far end.

They are designed for Ethernet and RJ45 connectors with 4 pairs, but come with several short adapter cables that you may be able to use. The tone generator is connected at one end, then the receiver works at the other and is best when the cable map function confirms a positive result.

I don't see why not, its just sending a signal down the wire. It does not know the difference between Ethernet, or telephone drop wire or anything else.

I don't know about shielded but I'll bet Fluke tech support knows. I'm pretty sure it will tone coax cable which is shielded of course. You could use the toner attached to the shield. That would effectively remove the shield as an issue.

Any toner will if you attach pos lead to the outside shield. If you use inside copper, very difficult to trace

I have heard a shielded cable works to cut down magnetic interference.I thought about that and wonder if it's not just the fact that the cable is thicker that make a difference.In effect cutting a form of interference in the form of resistance. Another cause,which would suck would be faulty internal wiring.

It's a multi strand 16 gauge. If u make ur own, it could be anything close. It's only routing 3v dc or less.

The manufacturer of this item is "Cable To Go". It's a 3-meter (3M) cable. You maybe looking at different item.

We forwarded this question on to a certified Wilson Electronics representative that is a friend of ours and this was his response: "RG 58 Cable does not have Much Shielding Connectors on it or even worse. The system in your house right now Is RG 400 triple shielded. Difference of night and day."

Make sure the cable you bought is not quad shield, i have made that mistake from lowes before.

No, it only works on unpowered cables. You put one part of the tester on one end of the cable and the other part of the tester on the other. Each end can be in different rooms.

I have three lines (telephone cable) going to three different devices I want monitored (sump pump well, water heater and water softener). I just pig-tail the three lines off the one thats included with the device. One line goes into my sump well, and the other two make a circle around the base of the heater and softener. I stripped the pair of wire so its all copper wire exposed. I hot glued the wires down separated about 1/4" apart. So a stream of water will make a "connection" between the two lines and call me.

Nice find on that cable I'm not sure if it will work But I spliced together my own cable that fits to a Mag safe adapter as long as you put the voltage over instead of under a little bit should be just fine I've used it plenty of times

It didn't work for me to trace through the wall, but it worked when I went to various outlets. I had to put the probe practically IN the outlets, however.

It is a matter of knowing which wires carry what information.You have a mismatch of the number of wires from RJ45 to RJ11.Do your due diligence and maybe you can 'make' it work for your project.

It will certify the cable for throughput, but not verify that you are using the correct pin outs if that's what you mean.

1. Yes, you'll need one for each end of the wire you are testing. 2. Assuming that the CAT5 tester works the same way (as a continuity tester) then it should work.

Any wire that is of the same gauge or bigger will work. All you have to do is cut it and then put in more wire, just make sure you have each wire matching since there is 4 different ones.

Your best bet would bet would be to buy a unit for each building you want to monitor.Their Current probes (C-Clamps) are NOT "off the shelf" parts and multiplexing cables would be tough and likely end up as a "Kludge".

The wire size is not stamped or laser imprinted on the outside insulation jacket of the cable, my best guess is somwhere between 18 Awg and 22Awg. If you need to know exact you might want to get in touch with blue rigger. I do know that 50 foot runs are awful long and you need to consider signal loss as a possible issue, if you do have signal loss try using a signal booster. Thanks

Hi there, This cable will work on any security dvr/recorder/monitoring system as the standards are set to bnc type connection,,,,no matter how old or new the device is. The only drawback is cable is very thin, not like the one that comes with cameras, however the build quality is o.k. I am using it for the past 7 months and do not have any problems. Only time will tell how long it will last. Thanx
