NetPeppers NEPE NP-LAN-CTR50 kabeltontester – inductieve contactloze sonde voor netwerk-, telefoon- en coaxkabels

In a crowded patch panel or a long cable run, identifying the right wire without damaging insulation is a daily challenge for network technicians. The NetPeppers NEPE NP-LAN-CTR50 Cable Tone Receiver solves this with an inductive non-contact tip that picks up the tone from a compatible generator, letting you trace cables safely and accurately. The audible tone and LED signal strength indicator guide you to the exact wire, while the built-in flashlight and volume control make it practical for dark wiring closets and noisy environments. Powered by a single 9V PP3 battery, this receiver is ready for field use in network installation, telecommunications, and electrical maintenance.

Good to know

This receiver requires a compatible tone generator (sold separately). It is powered by a standard 9V PP3 battery, which is not included. For best results, pair it with the NetPeppers NP-LAN-CTG50 tone generator.
