Sanwa Supply Launches Innovative LAN Cable Tester with PoE Checker Functionality

Sanwa Supply's New LAN Cable Tester with PoE Checker

On June 19th, Sanwa Supply, based in Okayama, Japan, introduced a new LAN cable tester designed to simplify network maintenance and troubleshooting. The model, named 500-LANTST5, features an easy-to-use design ideal for both professionals and novices, allowing for quick and efficient verification of LAN cables.

Simple Operation for Everyone

The new LAN cable tester operates with just a single switch. Users simply connect the cable and turn on the device. There's no need for advanced technical knowledge or complicated settings. This feature makes it perfect for on-site work and maintenance activities, ensuring anyone can check the status of a LAN cable—whether it's connected, cut, or miswired—within moments.

Built-in PoE Checker

One of the standout features of the 500-LANTST5 is its built-in PoE (Power over Ethernet) checker. The device can identify the power mode of PoE (either Class A or Class B) which is particularly useful during the setup and troubleshooting of devices like network cameras and access points. With this capability, users can efficiently assess PoE environments using just one tool, streamlining their workflow significantly.

Flexibility with Remote Units

The 500-LANTST5 also boasts a detachable remote unit that is magnetically attached. This unique design allows technicians to easily check hard-to-reach cables already installed in walls or ceilings. This adaptability supports flexible working conditions, making it a valuable addition to any technician's toolkit.

Enhance Work Safety with LED Light

For work in low-light conditions, the LAN cable tester is equipped with a built-in LED light. This feature enhances the user's ability to complete tasks accurately and safely in areas like server rooms or attics where visibility may be limited. By providing bright illumination directly at the work area, efficiency and safety are improved.

Compact Size and Portability

The compact design of the 500-LANTST5 means it can easily fit into a chest pocket, making it highly portable. Additionally, it comes with a storage pouch, further enhancing convenience for technicians who may need to operate in multiple locations. This thoughtful design enables easy transport, ensuring that essential tools are readily available wherever they go.

Pricing and Availability

The 500-LANTST5 is priced at 3,619 yen (excluding tax). It is available directly from Sanwa Supply's online storefront as well as various retailers, including Rakuten, Yahoo Shopping, and Amazon.
