New Ethernet Cable Tester
On Monday afternoon, I bought a Klein Tools Ethernet cable tester from a Home Depot in Peoria, AZ. Just as a disclaimer, I refer to anything in Peoria, AZ that is south of Bell Avenue as being located in "South Peoria". I live close to the isthmus that runs between Glendale, AZ and Sun City, AZ that connects "North Peoria" to "South Peoria". Yes, the city boundaries of Peoria, AZ are strange. It would make for an interesting post to investigate why.
Anyway, I bought an Ethernet cable tester because I wanted to test the Ethernet cables that I made using the T-568A and T-568B cabling standards. To put it another way, I made a straight-through cable and a crossover cable. Now, I want to test both cables to see if I did it correctly.
While making the cables, I took a series of photos with my cell phone camera.
In the coming days, I will write a post about making a straight-through cable and a crossover cable.
Stay tuned.
