CAT5 Testing




After a long weekend running lots and lots of CAT5 (around 2000m I guess
(is
it enough - probably not)), I was wondering if there is any simple way of
testing the cables before all of the walls are plaster boarded etc? I guess
the only way to really test them is to terminate and put a tester on, but
don't really want to do the terminations yet.

On a separate topic. If I had two patch panels at different ends of a
building and wanted to joint them together, how would you do that? I will
be
running multiple type of signal over the panels (ie telephone, tv) so a
direct connection would be required.
