As a result, it can be a serious hassle to add, replace, or even identify cables within a bundled voice, data and video installation. Enter the IntelliTone 200 digital toner and probe, which is specifically designed to safely and effectively trace cables hidden in floors, ceilings, walls, and bundles--even on active networks. The unit's digital signal-locating technology clearly identifies the unique signal with audio and LED visual indicators, making it as advanced as the systems it analyzes.
One of the problems with traditional analog probes is that they have trouble identifying signal bleed from one cable to another. Thus, isolating cables with analog tools requires guesswork, training, and time for repeated testing, and even the best efforts often result in mistakes. The IntelliTone 200 kit, on the other hand, decisively rejects noise and false signals while correctly isolating any cable within a bundle, whether coaxial (RG6, RG9, and other cable TV cables) or bare (such as speaker wire and security network wire). The unit also validates twisted-pair installations (UTP, Cat 5e, Cat 6) with a visual end-to-end cable map--a great way to determine whether a twisted pair is miswired.
The IntelliTone 200 works by employing a smart, synchronized digital signal that searches for several tone types in the signal. It can detect maximum radiation within a bundle, it can search for a signal with minimum radiation, or it can seek an automated signal that steps through each conductor. The device is also designed to ignore the noise produced by fluorescent lights, machinery, computer monitors, and electrical wiring, so you can quickly isolate the proper signal and save hours on cable location projects. And unlike analog signals, the IntelliTone digital signal stays strong despite the use of "common mode termination" among modern network devices. "Common mode determination" is designed to reduce noise and crosstalk in the cable, but can absorb an analog toner signal. No such problem with the IntelliTone's digital signal.
The device can also diagnose and troubleshoot telecom/data services, telling you whether an RJ11 or RJ45 jack is a datacom jack, a phone jack, or a dead outlet. The IntelliTone 200 toner is designed to detect telephone and Ethernet service, indicate polarity and active line numbers on voice circuits, and indicate active pair numbers on Ethernet circuits. Finally, the IT200 toner and probe provide such standard functions as visual and audible signal strength indicators, legacy 1 kHz analog toning and detection, continuity testing, and talk battery power for telephone line testing.
Additional features include a three-level battery status indicator LED ; an auto/off feature that shuts down the toner after 2-1/2 hours of inactivity; and compatibility with analog toner/probe kits. The toner measures 2.94 by 5.54 by 1.2 inches (W x H x D), while the probe checks in at 8.73 by 1.88 by 1.26 inches.
What's in the Box IntelliTone 200 toner, IntelliTone 200 probe, coaxial F connector adapter, two RJ11 patch cables, two RJ45 patch cables, test leads with alligator clips, two lanyards, two 9-volt batteries, CD-ROM with quick-start guide and user's manual.

I've been dealing with telco and network wires for over two decades. My current gigs involve showing up on a site with a network problem and getting it fixed quickly. Mostly retail stuff where the POS or credit card system is down, in other words, they are not making money. I've had the 200 for about 8 months now and it has proven its worth over and over again. I often show up at a site that I've never seen before, and let me tell you, retail installs can be really ugly. Sometimes just finding the switch or router on a site can be a challenge because the staff doesn't have a clue. This probe will find wires in walls but also show you which one in a bundle you're holding in your hand is the one you're looking for (you have to use it to understand.) The connection tester will show you what wires are missing or in the wrong position if you listen to it well, EVEN IF THERE IS ONLY ONE WIRE CONNECTED! This is a complicated but intuitive device, so intuitive that there really isn't much of a manual.. you just have to work with it for a while. Like a rather odd co-worker that is skilled but a bit strange, you'll come to love it. The guys and gals in Everett really understood what us field guys go through and need in a "toner". If you deal with CAT5 or RJ45 wiring on a regular basis, you want this. If you have a job where you show up and have to figure where a wire goes, you NEED this. I've used every toner out there (the blue Fluke beats Progressive to shame) and can do amazing tricks with them. This damn little setup is the best thing that I've ever found. I just wish that they made it 20 years ago.
