A cable goes dead mid-set and you're standing in the dark trying to figure out which of the six XLRs is the culprit. Or a client says their HDMI 'doesn't work' and you need to prove it's the cable, not the port, before they blame your install. This Jaycar multi-style cable tester handles that in about ten seconds. Plug both ends in, turn the 11-way selector knob to match your connector – XLR, TRS, RCA, HDMI, USB-A, USB-B, Micro USB, RJ45, Speakon, Powercon, DMX 5-pin, DIN, banana plug, and more – and the LED indicators tell you pin-by-pin whether continuity and ground are good. All-metal chassis means it takes a knock in a road case without cracking. Built-in battery checker so you're never guessing if the tool itself is flat. Runs on a 9 V battery (not included). One tester in your kit covers the studio, the stage, and the tech bench. Add it to cart and stop pulling cables apart with a multimeter at 11 p.m
