The Palmer AHMCTXL V2 is the ultimate diagnostic tool for sound engineers, installers, and rental companies. In the high-pressure environment of a live show or a complex installation, a single faulty cable can bring an entire system to a halt. This rugged, handheld tester allows you to quickly verify the integrity of almost every cable type used in the professional AV industry.
From standard microphone cables to complex data and power leads, the AHMCTXL V2 provides instant, easy-to-read visual feedback on continuity, pin-to-pin mapping, and potential shorts.
