1. INTRODUCTION
We all know how frustrating and time consuming it can be when your audio cables fail.
With the CT2 cable testing unit you can now evaluate a large variety of your cables with
ease. The CT2 offers many common connectors such as Speakon, XLR, Phono, BNC,
DIN, TRS, TS, DMX, & Banana. The CT2 allows for testing cables even with different
connectors at each end. For example, it is simple to test a TRS to XLR cable. With well
illuminated LED indicators and a simple rotary dial, users can quickly establish wether a
cable is wired and functioning correctly, or if it is ‘dead’ and in need of repair.
