Klein Tools VDV501-851 Cable Tester Kit

The Klein Tools VDV501-851 Cable Tester Kit combines the Scout Pro 3 tester with five locator remotes for mapping multiple cable runs. It tests voice, data, and video terminated cables to identify open, short, miswire, or split-pair faults. Technicians and installers use it to verify cable integrity and organise wiring infrastructure efficiently.

Verify connector types

Confirm your cables use RJ11, RJ12, RJ45, or F-connector terminations because the tester supports only those interfaces. The length measurement function reaches up to 2000 feet or 610 metres, so ensure that range covers your longest runs. Cable tracing requires the separate analog probe VDV500-123, which is not included in this kit.

Replaces separate testers for voice, data.

This kit consolidates three cable types into one instrument and adds multi-run mapping with the five included remotes. The upgrade is worthwhile when you regularly certify mixed wiring installations and need hub blink mode to locate switch ports quickly. It does not suit buyers who only test a single cable type or who require fibre-optic verification.

Questions about this item

What comes in the Klein Tools VDV501-851 kit and what must be purchased separately?

The kit includes the Scout Pro 3 tester, five LanMap remotes and five CoaxMap remotes for multi-cable mapping. An analog probe (Cat. No. VDV500-123) is required for tone tracing and is sold separately.

Which version of the Scout Pro 3 tester is included in this kit?

This kit supplies the VDV501-851 model, which tests voice (RJ11/12), data (RJ45) and video (coax F-connector) cables, measures length up to 2000 feet (610 m), detects open, short, miswire and split-pair faults, and features a backlit LCD with hub blink mode.

What does the 2000-foot length measurement mean when I am testing installed cable?

The tester can measure cable runs up to 2000 feet (610 m), so you can verify the length of long Ethernet, coax or phone cables in a single test and confirm the distance to faults such as opens or shorts.
