Additional Specifications
Test Services: High-Resolution Measurement SmartTone Analog Technology
Strengths: Find a single cable in a bundle, stepped audible wire test, combines probe with cable tester
Weakness: price
This tool has been indispensible in our organization. I routinely have to trace cat5 cables from jack back to a wire bundle at the patch panel. Before I got this tool, I had to carry a probe set and a wire tester. My only complaint is it was a little pricy.
Strengths: Both digital, and analog modes, uses standard 9V batteries. Digital mode is very useful for finding one wire among thousands
Weakness: Always forget to turn off the unit
We do a fair amount of network infrastructure in very old buildings where things don't always make sense. This tool really helps us trace wires over fairly long distances in electrically noisy environments. I have an analog unit, however it hardly ever gets used any more. It also has a cable mapping function, that surprisingly we use quite often. I would recommend this unit.

Strengths: Toning on live networks, probe options, telephone line checking, cable mapping, great cable locating options
Weakness: No cable length measurement or detection of network speed
This is an excellent product that offers features like no other I've seen. The quality is first rate as far as I can tell, but having been in the facility that makes these and seen the testing, I very am excited to use the product. I would not expect the two items in the weakness section to be available at this price point. I did buy the case Fluke Networks makes for this and like it too.
It works OK, but, it seems way over promoted in...
Strengths: It works a bit better than SOME other analogue toners, etc. It has good battery life protection via automatic shut down.
Weakness: Seems much like and old toy I would have played with as a kid with repect to its presentation and the construction.
I may not have spent as much on this set had I been able to try it first. I have seen many technicians do well with much less expensive toners and probes. Great marketing job on FLUKE'S part.
