Explanation

A crimper is the physical tool used to attach RJ-45 (or other) connectors to the ends of network cable, which is required to create the cable. A cable certifier tests the finished cable against industry standards (e.g., TIA/EIA), verifying performance characteristics like attenuation, crosstalk, and bandwidth - confirming the cable was created correctly. A toner probe traces cables through walls, a butt set is used to test telephone lines, and a network analyzer captures and analyzes network traffic - none of these create or certify the physical cable.
