My old Test-Um Lanscaper died, and I was curious what people liked these
days. Don’t need throughput testing or anything like that, just basic wire
map testing, cable ID, cable length, PoE voltage, and DHCP client.


We've been happy with the Platinum Tools Net Prowler:
https://www.platinumtools.com/products/testers/network-testers/net-prowler-cabling-and-network-tester-tnp700/

It does physical cable testing and ID, DHCP and basic IP testing, PoE
testing, and LLDP.
