DIY Ethernet RJ-45 UTP Cable Tester UltraCheap (Wall Mountable)

Step 7 Final Touch And Testing

There we are last step

*Now plug the battery to battery clip.

*Take a RJ45 Lan cable which you are using on your internet or anything else but which you dont need to test and plug to connectors.2 sides of the Cable should be pluged in Tester in order to test (im sorry i need to say that much basic ) so if your all leds are shining then you did a good job your soldering and other things are fine now you can go to other step

*If its not be sure all soldering are done well

*My suggestion is use hot glue to prevent touching legs each other.

*Now you can place your Plate to your wallmounth box.

*Only thing is screw the top and bottom and You are done.


------------------Testing--------------------

Take cable which you want to test and plug both sides thats all you need to do.If some LEDs are not working check which cable color are they indicating and solve the problem of your cable.

Really great job my friend! 1 question does it really light up all the leds? I only see 1 or 2 on.

You seem to have left out how to connect the 2nd RJ45. Step 6 shows the 1st RJ45, and suddenly the 2nd RJ45 appears in Step 7, with no mention of how to wire it up. Did I miss something? It was a bit difficult to understand.

This method requires both ends of the cable to come together to connect to two RJ45s in the faceplate. But there are times when you can't bring both ends together (like when the cable is coming from outside your house to inside your house).

I would rather use a separate (passive) RJ45 that can be attached to one end of the cable (like outside at an antenna). The passive RJ45 would connect each wire to its return wire to check continuity at the active RJ45 tester end.
