There for you in a pinch
Why is this cable tester so popular? Because when something goes wrong, as things often do, it's there to the rescue. The Millenium MCT-20 has an outstanding number of connector types at the ready. However, should there be a type which is not covered, the contact testers, which are already included in the scope of delivery, can help. Even CAT5 cables and Speakon connections in two variations can be easily checked, which sets this tool apart from many others. Those who mainly check long, permanently installed cables should take a look at the separable Millenium MCT-30. Operation is simple, as two virtually self-explanatory LED light rows illuminate the way through the cable jungle. Only a standard 9 V block battery has to be inserted beforehand.

Test, test, test
The Millenium MCT-20 cable tester offers a lot of simple testing options. For those who want to know exactly, here are the details: In addition to 6.3 and 3.5 mm jack cables, RCA, three-pin and five-pin XLR cables, three, five, seven, and eight-pin DIN plugs as well as four and eight-pin Speakon connections can be checked, not to mention seven-pin and eight-pin CAT-5 cables. Still need more? With the contact tester, you can quickly go through each cable. Before testing, move the rotary switch to Battery Check to check the internal battery. Then connect one end of the cable to the left and the other end to the right side of the tester so that when you turn to the desired wire number, you can see at a glance whether the signal arrives at the other end of the cable and on which pin. That's it.

For problem solvers
For professional repairs, cable checks, and soldering work, this tester offers solidly made sockets so that your hands are free to track down a broken cable, for example. The device does not stop at adapters and unbalanced jack and XLR cables. It is robust enough for everyday touring and sits on secure rubber feet in the FOH position. For sound engineers, a cable tester is an indispensable tool. In addition, the bright housing of this model pays off in live operation, as it is easy to see in the show light of darkened locations. Laymen will benefit from the practically self-explanatory operation. In fact, the operation is so simple that it is easy to remember, even with infrequent use.

These products are made by renowned companies who also manufacture products for other well-known brands.

Need an adapter? No problem.
When a cable tester is used in the darkness of live operation, it's always a bit stressful. Usually no signal is received, and the cable tester is needed to find the cause. But what good is the best tool without the necessary illumination? A practical solution is a headlamp to keep your hands free. To ensure that the light falls specifically downwards onto the plugs, there are models such as the Ansmann Headlight HD280RS with an individually adjustable angle of inclination. If you also have to work in wet conditions, go for a robust light like the Varta Outdoor Sport H20 Pro batterie.
