NetPeppers Cable Crew

Test devices for copper cabling

Three testers. One mission. Reliable networks.

Test cables. Identify faults. Verify networks. And report all results clearly with the NP Connect app.

The Cable Crew supports every step: From quick wiremap and targeted troubleshooting to comprehensive documentation.

Cable Inspector

Fast wiremapping for installations. Detect wiring faults instantly and see immediately whether everything is correct.

Cable Captain

Wiremap with additional length measurement and documentation via NP Connect App. Collect, store, and share results.

Cable Commander

Advanced network testing including PoE++ testing and documentation via NP Connect App. For full control of your infrastructure.

The Problem:

Most network issues originate in the cabling. Wiring faults, split pairs, or damaged conductors cause many of the problems that later appear in the network.

Installers and IT technicians face the same challenges every day:

  • Incorrect wiring
  • Short circuits or open circuits
  • Wiring faults that are difficult to locate
  • Issues with Power over Ethernet (PoE)
  • Lack of installation documentation

Testing the cable is quick.
Properly reporting often takes significantly more time.

The Solution:

The Cable Crew is for testing, analyzing, and documenting networks.

In practice, every network installation follows a clear sequence:

  • Test cables
  • Diagnose faults in a targeted manner
  • Verify the network reliably
  • Document results in a traceable way

Find the right tester for your needs.

Cable Inspector - The Wiremapper

Fast testing for new cabling.
Detects wiring faults instantly and clearly shows whether everything is correct.

Typical applications

  • Testing new cable installations
  • Verifying wiring
  • Identifying faults immediately

Key features

  • Graphical wiremap with PASS/FAIL indication
  • Detection of split pairs, short circuits, and open circuits
  • Integrated tone generator

The fastest way to test the cabling.

Cable Captain - The Verifier with App Connection

For verifying the network and structured reports.
Identifies problems faster and makes results immediately usable.

Typical applications

  • Locating faults
  • Determining cable length
  • Documenting results

Key features

  • Length measurement for fault isolation
  • NP Connect integration
  • PDF and CSV reports
  • Cloud synchronization

Find faults. Document results.

Cable Commander - The Network Analyst

For complex networks and professional analysis.
Tests PoE++, evaluates infrastructure, and fully documents results.

Typical applications

  • Analyzing network installations
  • Testing PoE infrastructure
  • Verifying installations

Key features

  • PoE testing (power, voltage, polarity)
  • Support up to IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++)
  • Analysis of resistance unbalance
  • NP Connect integration

Take control of your network.

Coming soon – Autumn 2026

NP Connect - The Command Center

Testing cables is quick. Documentation often takes significantly more time. NP Connect App connects your cable tester* to your smartphone and turns individual measurements into structured project documentation.

From cable test to finished report

  • Test cables
  • Analyze faults
  • Store results
  • Generate a PDF report

All in one seamless workflow.
