Still requires moving remote...

by sgooding · 13 years ago In reply to Have a look at this cable ...

This type of testing still requires the receiver and remote to be moved one port at a time thus creating 72 trips back and forth. I'm looking for a cost effective way of checking multiple ports at a time.

Cable tester with multiple remotes.

by 1bn0 · 13 years ago In reply to Testing Cat5 connections

I have one of these

http://www1.dealtime.co.uk/xPF-Black-Box-MicroScanner-Network-testing-device-TS800A

with 12 remotes. The remotes show up on the tester as "Office 1" "Office 2" etc.

Look for something similar.

36 short patch cables

Just loop back port1 to port2, etc.

Then just plug a cable tester onto ports1 and 2 on the other end.
