By Sam | 1:18 PM MST, Thu August 10, 2017

Hello, today we will be exploring the Platinum Tools TNP700 Net Prowler Cable and Network Tester. Platinum Tools really has a grasp on what the technician wants when it comes to test equipment. The TNP700 has a full color display and an easy to navigate menu. This handheld meter is designed as a multi-function tester for setting up and troubleshooting networks. The Net Prowler performs normal operations like network mapping, ping and link testing, as well as basic cable tests. The TNP700 will also save tests for later printing from a personal computer.  This meter handles so many tests that it is far easier to list them out in bullet format as can be found below.

  • Ping both IPV4 and IPV6 addresses
  • Test TCP/UDP throughput
