We’re a small company. We have about 50 PC’s in a large area(same area, not another city or another part of city).
Our system works without any problems for now but we want to solve problems that we can in our company.
I am a beginner and i’ll buy some network devices to help me solving the problems.
I don’t know which products will suit us more.
Forexample i will buy a cable tester;

This one is about 10$,

This one 130$.
I want to learn if cable works and maybe i’ll learn which port of the switch goes to where, with this device.
Is cable tester and blinker the same device?
There are some ethernet crimping tools about 5$. Will they be enough or shall we choose a more expensive one.
What are the main needs? We want to solve problems without asking for help from outside the company.This is my list;
– Cable tester
– Cable tracer
– a lot of rj45 connector
– we have enough cat6 cable
– switch punch tool
– ethernet crimper tool
– of course a pc and a notebook
* Don’t think we’ll try to construct the whole network by ourselves, we have a working system. We think of buying services from outside for one more year. We try to make a beginning to solve our problems inside.
Thank you for your helps.
