Works great. If I could recommend an improvement i would say it would be nice to only have to plug in to one rj45 port instead of having 3 to figure out which one to plug into for each scenario.

One of the KEY REASONS I purchased this model was the IP test and POE testThe IP tester is not picking up an IP address in DHCP selected. It initializes then it says: Failed.The PoE test says: Timed out. I know the port has PoE and was working fine.IP Scan works fine when you configure an IP manually, again DHCP is not picking up.That makes it useless for me.Cable length tester works, the cable toner could be a bit more sensitive but overall works fine.

Troubleshooting network gremlins just got a whole lot easier with this nifty little gadget in my toolbelt. The NOYAFA NF-8506 Network Cable Tester is like a Swiss Army knife for any tech enthusiast or professional dealing with wired connections.With its comprehensive set of features, including IP scanning, network rate testing, PoE detection, Ping capabilities, and TDR for cable length measurement, this tester covers all the bases. I've used it to diagnose and pinpoint issues with Ethernet, telephone, and coaxial cables effortlessly. The built-in cable toner and RJ45/RJ11 connectors make tracing those pesky lines a breeze. While the interface could be more user-friendly, the sheer functionality of this device makes it a worthy investment for anyone wrestling with network gremlins.

I bought this to replace my fantastic old Test-Um NT700 that I used for years. Unfortunately no reputable brand produces affordable network testers anymore like the old Lanscaper line of testers. Plenty of cable continuity testers, but none that can also do basic network diagnostics. These cheap overseas units seem to be the only games in town. We'll see how long it lasts for.Pros:Works pretty well to check network cables for valid wiring, continuity. Does basic network testing DHCP, Ping, port speed, POE presence detection. Has a tone generator for locating wires in a bundle.Fairly easy to use.Cons:Could not get wire length measurement to work.Tone generator pickup seems to only play sound after it detects the signal, so there's always a delay. Would be useless for quickly finding the right wire in a bundle of cables. I much prefer a tool where I push a button and it sounds continuously as I move it across the wires to search for signal.You're always having to move the cable to a different jack on the tester. There are three different RJ45 jacks that each do different things. Continuity test, length test, switch port and POE testing all use different jacks. Fortunately the screen tells you which one to use. But it's a pain. The old Test-um could do everything with one port.Verdict:Useful and affordable pro-sumer tool, replacing a cable tester and tone generator with one unit.

Manual is a bit difficult to read, being a direct translation from Chinese. Can still figure it out with a bit of actual use.I didn't notice that it doesn't include shield continuity in the cable testing. That would be very handy if it did.

It is the basic tester and easy to operate. Plug into the correct jack on the meter for the test you want to make. Each jack is labeled for the test it is to be used for. Simple and easy with a clear display.
