When you are doing RF network cable telecom test work and a link fails, the first question is whether the cable path is intact. The Trend Networks NaviTEK ll PLUS Network Cable Tester Wiremapping Copper/Fibre is designed to help answer that question in a single handheld unit.
Quick verdict
The Trend Networks NaviTEK ll PLUS is a practical choice if you need one used handheld for everyday cable verification and are comfortable with cosmetic wear. At USD 200.00, the price puts a single unit in your hands for the testing tasks that come up in the field.
Who it suits
This tester fits network technicians, telecom installers, and IT staff who check installed cabling and want a single device for network troubleshooting. Its handheld form makes it convenient for jobs where carrying multiple tools is not practical.
Product note
Trend Networks NaviTEK ll PLUS Network Cable Tester Wiremapping Copper/Fibre
The unit powers up and navigates through its screens, and it offers both copper and fiber coverage with wiremapping. That gives you a concrete reason to keep it in your kit for mixed-media cable checks. The limitation is the as-is position: no warranty, no returns, no batteries included, and visible scuffs on the screens plus sticker residue on the case. Be ready to add your own batteries and accept the used condition.
What stands out
The tester combines RJ45 wiremapping with Copper/Fibre testing in one device, which is the main advantage for mixed-media networks. The unit powers up and can navigate through menus, but no further testing has been done. The country of origin is listed as the United Kingdom. The visible wear includes screen scuffs and sticker residue with impressions where a sticker was.
Meaningful trade-offs
The core trade-off is buying a used, as-is instrument. The initial check gives you a starting point, but the absence of further diagnostic testing means you are accepting the unit without full functional confirmation. The no-warranty and no-returns details are important. If you have batteries on hand and some tolerance for wear, the decision is easier. If you need a like-new unit or a guarantee, this is not the right fit.
Bottom line
If your RF network cable telecom test work calls for a handheld tester that can handle the mixed-media job, the Trend Networks NaviTEK ll PLUS is a direct option at USD 200.00. The used condition is part of the deal, so weigh that before committing.
