Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
If all you want is to trace 'ports to rooms' let's say, and have to power to both locations, you could plug a Loco into an room and plug laptop into the patch panel and run the locater to see the unit. Not the switch, cause you'd see them all. So basically $50 bucks a test/trace unit and if you use UBNT in your business. -- Original Message -- From: Scott Reed sr...@nwwnet.net Reply-To: WISPA General List wireless@wispa.org Date: Tue, 28 Jan 2014 15:49:24 -0500 JDSU makes or made several units.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
The meter/ID approach is a very quick process, the locos or otherwise might work in a pinch but by no means is effective at saving time. If you were going on a budget for the ID process you might be able to build your own dongles with various resistors from pin 1 to pin 8 for instance and when you hook your multimeter in you know what the reading should be for each endpoint. i'm sure those meters that you buy are doing the same thing but i'm not an electrical engineer.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
Matt, I like this...for the DIY'rs out there anyways. You could find a dial switch that has 7 positions(each one goes to pins 1-7 on cat5 and 8 is your common) and power it with a 9v...put an LED in line that would run off the 9v. Plug it in and spin the dial until you get light. For the right people, this is a cheap solution that will get them pretty far...for other people, they might want to stick with the klein tool for $150+, you get a few more bells and whistles.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
Did you actually look at the link? :) No, I'm not looking for a generalized tester. I'm looking for a device with multiple numbered/colored rj45 plugs. You take the plugs and plug them into outlets, then take the tester to the patch panel. When you plug in the tester to each port on the patch panel, it tells you what numbered/colored plug is on the other end.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
That's not at all what I'm talking about. That's just a tester, not a multi-room toner.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
I bought this from Amazon earlier this year. Works well enough. Same as you are looking at just more plugs I believe. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006JUYPKQ/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8psc=1 I also use this for anything else wireline wise. It's the best toner I have ever used. Well worth it. http://www.amazon.com/Fluke-Networks-MT-8200-50A-IntelliTone-100/dp/B0001FSCRW/ref=sr_1_32?s=industrialie=UTF8qid=1390941141sr=1-32keywords=fluke At some point I will be moving to this kit and hand down the above gear to our techs.

I'm looking for a device with multiple numbered/colored rj45 plugs. You take the plugs and plug them into outlets, then take the tester to the patch panel. When you plug in the tester to each port on the patch panel, it tells you what numbered/colored plug is on the other end.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
josh, the testum unit by jdsu had a model like this(TP600) but didn't do coax. I don't want to oversimplify this, but I can't imagine why there aren't more people making units like this...even the ones with more identifiers, I can't imagine that any of these components are that expensive especially when building them in bulk Mark Spring Systems Analyst New Knoxville Telephone Company 301 W.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
I agree. They should be relatively cheap to make. I found the one I used to use for satellite/coax installs here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Coax-Locator-Cable-Mapper-Identifier-Tester-CL500-T3-Inovation/151207593771?rt=nc_trksid=p2047675.m1851_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D19841%26meid%3D4443111505221948349%26pid%3D15%26prg%3D8934%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D5%26sd%3D221173371074%26 The Klein unit Chris posted was a larger version of the one I was looking at. I like Klein tools, I was just trying to see if anybody made a better unit with more integrated tests without the Fluke price.

Re: [WISPA] Outlet toner for cat5/6 and/or Coax
JDSU makes or made several units. The one I have has 8 number blocks to search for. Does cable length, correct pair wiring, tones and some other stuff. It is in the truck which is a the repair shop so I can not give you the model number.
