Wireless, Wi-Fi and Broadband infrastructure installation requires cables for RF and data throughput. Testing these cable assemblies in the field can be difficult with the variety of unique connectors available today as well as the popular reverse polarity styles. The RFA-4028-WIFI kit by RF Connectors, a division of RF Industries, simplifies the task.
The kit contains a Unidapt RF Cable tester (RFA-4018-20) with an assortment of 30 universal adapters, including male and female MMCX, N, Reverse Polarity TNC, Reverse Polarity SMA, TNC, BNC and SMA connector interfaces. By joining two adapters using a universal center included in the kit, coaxial adapters can be made with any combination of these interfaces.

The RFA-4018-20 coaxial cable tester is a solid-state continuity checker that measures for opens and shorts. The LED display indicates continuity for the shield and center conductor, as well as check for shorting across conductor paths. An additional continuity tester is included for testing CAT5/5E/6 straight through or crossover RJ-45, UTP, 10Base-T, 100Base-T, 1000Base-T EIA/TIA 568A/568/B network cables. The LED display on the tester identifies the cable pairs and indicates a correctly wired cable. It will also indentify crossed pairs or miss-wired pairs. The kit is housed in a foam-lined impact resistant plastic case.
