Indications for 6- and 8-position jacks
The STM-8 consists of a hand-held master unit and a remote.
The kit comes packaged in a padded nylon carrying case with two modular test cords, The
Siemon Company's Wiring Reference Guide, instructions, and a 9V alkaline battery. Each of
the four remotes are individually identified by the master unit.
The UTP modular cords are equipped with patented
"universal" plugs that fit into any standard 6- or 8-position modular jack.
The MT-5000 is a versatile hand-held
cable tester- it is fast, reliable, and durable. It tests opens, shorts, and miswires from
1- to 25-pair and can accommodate a combination of 25-pair and modular jack terminations.
For instance, using the TAP-50® test adapter, the remote unit can be attached
to a 66 block that is connected to multiple horizontal cable runs in the equipment closet.
Then, using the modular jack in the Master Unit, one person can test up to six 4-pair
station cables in the work area. Cable runs of up to 762m (2,500 ft.) can be tested with
accuracy.
