The Hosa CBT - 500 is an outstanding audio signal cable tester. It can precisely diagnose signal failures in cables. These cables can be terminated with various connector combinations, such as XLR, Phone, Phono, and speakON® connectors. Also, it works well with DIN, Ethernet, 75 - ohm BNC, and USB Type A to Type B cables. What's more, it comes with removable leads that help you easily verify the continuity of extra connectors and jacks. All you need to operate this amazing tester is one 9 - volt battery, which is included in the package.

Using the Hosa CBT - 500 is easy. First, make sure the 9 - volt battery (which is included) is properly installed in the device. Then, connect the cable you want to test to the appropriate connectors on the tester. If the cable has a common connector like XLR, Phone, Phono, or speakON®, just plug it in. For other types such as DIN, Ethernet, 75 - ohm BNC, or USB Type A to Type B cables, connect them in the right way. The removable leads can be used to check additional connectors and jacks. When testing, pay attention to the signals and indicators on the tester to see if there are any failures. As for maintenance, keep the tester in a dry and clean place. Avoid dropping it or exposing it to extreme temperatures. If the battery runs out, replace it with a new 9 - volt battery. This will ensure the tester works well for a long time.
