 {{  ::bnctester.svg?150}}Continuity tester for video cables with BNC connector. The device checks if the shield and the conductor of the cable are connected and there is no short circuit between. It provides a simple and quick way of fault analysis. It's especially handy on the set - eg. if there is no video signal present on your monitor you can easily spot or exclude a broken cable as the culprit or use it when crimping BNC cables to test the crimping result. {{  ::bnctester.svg?150}}Continuity tester for video cables with BNC connector.

-A BNC cable is used to distribute [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_frequency|RF signals]], which puts high requirements on these cables. With the BNC tester you can not make a statement about the quality of the signal transmission, this requires an expensive [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_pattern|eye-pattern]] measurement device and the skills to interpret the results.+A BNC cable is used to distribute [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_frequency|RF signals]], which puts high requirements on these cables.

 Under some rare conditions, it is possible that //BNC Tester// shows a positive result, but the video signal is not received by the monitor (or recorder etc). Under some rare conditions, it is possible that //BNC Tester// shows a positive result, but the video signal is not received by the monitor (or recorder etc).
