Knightsbridge XT468 User manual

  • Hello! I have reviewed the Installation & Maintenance Manual for the Knightsbridge Cable Tester XT468. This document details how to use the cable tester to identify wiring issues, including short circuits and incorrect connections, on various cable types like RJ45, RJ11, and RJ12. I can help answer questions about its operation and features. Feel free to ask!
  • What types of connections can this cable tester test?
    What indicates a correct connection?
    What indicates an incorrect connection?
    What does it mean if no lights activate?
