not when you are custom installing in a home built before ethernet and don't really want someone in your house. measured runs, drilled holes in floors and now have rj45 access up and down stairs plus living room at an average of 18 to 24 cents per foot with wall junction blocks, plugs and boots and no worries about self crimped or crosswired errors.

You can send a current through and when the circuit is complete, the beeper will go off. Now that doesn't solve your problem of matching upon the terminals, but it does help.

Ifnot for a paid job site, who cares the color. They do make tools that beep when each end is the same.had to make network setups in college and it was a blast. The instructorlet me help the sighted ones in class, because they messed up to much. At 06:13 PM 11/17/2010, you wrote:Hello Haden: I have made a few network cables with sighted help. There is noindependent way to figure out the wire colors. Some of the wires have awhite stripe, so the blue wire is different from the blue-white wire.Once you get the wires in order and trimmed, it is possible to slip on the plug and crimp it, but a sighted person should look through the plugto check.
