Horrible tester. Very inaccurate on measurements. Tested 2 ft, 5 ft 7 ft cables and it reported various measurements over 10 feet. Tested other cables as well and the same thing measurements were all over the place. DO NOT PURCHASE. NO NEED TO get this model because the measurements will do you no good and if you don't need that function, then purchase the much cheaper models that have what appears to be everything else this one has except measurements of cable. Notice we purchased several Klein tools in past weeks and very disappointed in all of them. I have been an over 20 year supporter of Klein tools and equipment. Even down to their screw drivers. They have fallen hard in quality. Very disappointed in their products over the last weeks. Pretty poor quality.

Klein Scout Pro Coax Capabilities.
Good solid product. However it does not read through splitters, hubs or switches. Was trying to chance outlets in my RV and the splitters are not easy to access. Otherwise great product.

                  Worth the price
                  Wasn't going to buy this since I only had a dozen connections but it was worth getting. Clean quick stripping of the outer jacket. Worth the price.
