...Cable Testers: How They Work and With Which Cable System ITT Technical Institute Physical Networking – NT1310 10/27/2014 After any size cable installation the technicians should check for errors, performance issues, signal loss and check for equipment that may cause interference and degrade network performance. The following paragraphs describe three (3) cable testers and how they work and which cable system(s) they are most suitable for. The first tester is the wire-mapper. Wire-mappers are used primarily with copper twisted-pair cable installations. These devices, according to Oliviero and Woodward (2011, p.422, 441) “Transmit signals through each pair in a twisted-pair cable to determine if it is connected correctly to the correct pin at each end.” The second tool is the tone generator. A tone generator is a two-piece unit that consists of a tone generator and a probe. This type of tester's primary function, amongst installers, is to identify specific locations in a punch-down block then label accordingly. According to Oliviero and Woodward (2011, p.442-443), these testers “Transmit[s] a signal, or, with an alligator clip, you connect the unit to an individual wire. The other unit is an inductive amplifier, which is a pen-like probe that emits an audible tone when touched to the other end of the conductor.” Primary functions are identify a particular cable within a bundle and to test for opens, shorts, and miswires of individual wires. Unfortunately, there is...

...ITT TECHNICAL INSTITUTE NT1310 Physical Networking GRADED ASSIGNMENTS ------------------------------------------------- Student Professional Experience Project NSA SPE Project 1 (to be completed by the end of NT1310): Install, Configure, Test, Maintain and/or Document the Worksite Local Area Network and Its Components Purpose The purpose of the Student Professional Experience (SPE) project is to provide you an opportunity for work experience in your field or in a related field to add to your résumé. You may have an opportunity to serve your community or work for a local employer for a project that will take between 20 and 30 hours. Project Logistics Career Services will identify an employer with needs in the following areas: Network related tasks (mostly confined to the LAN and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 environments) Students are expected to practice various skills discussed in all the technical courses in Quarters 1 through 3 of the NSA program at an employer’s site on network related tasks (more confined to the LAN and Microsoft Windows Networking with Server 2008 environments) that would involve installation, configuration, testing, maintenance and documentation of the worksite network and its components, and to properly document the technical information in all involved activities. Such documentation will be used as the source material for Items 2 and 3 defined in the Deliverables section of this document. Possible example projects could...
