    Multiple Tone Generators on a pair

    There is an old outside plant tool commonly referred to as a "hound dog" which is basically a toner on steroids. The suggestions about going to a good ground though are valid. I would call around a few outside plant splicers and see if anyone has a hound dog if you cant get a solution using...

    Norstar System being hacked

    Telemarketers frequently employ this tactic. They have a way of manipulating their caller ID, and frequently do. My boss had the same problem, they were calling from a number one digit different to our office line, or one digit off of his cellphone number. It is not likely that they are...

    CICS single station problem.

    None at all...bad port. Problem solved though, swapped it with the shop phone, which does not recieve incoming calls anyway! Thanks for all the help guys. I was miserable, then someone told me "smile and be happy, things could be worse". So I smiled and was happy...and they were right...

    CICS single station problem.

    I will try that after 5 Curly, thanks. Will let you know how it looks tomorrow I guess. I was miserable, then someone told me "smile and be happy, things could be worse". So I smiled and was happy...and they were right, things were worse!

    CICS single station problem.

    The set has been changed out with another (which was functioning at a different DN) I have not been able to move the DN to another port, unfortunately all ports are in service. The port has been disabled and reinabled several times with no joy. I am planning on doing a system restart at the...

    Data Transfer Rates based on medium

    Each cable manufacturer publishes information, which is largely ignored, it is called the "NVP" or nominal velocity of propagation. This, in English, is the percentage of the speed of light at which a data bit will travel along the cable. This NVP is the part you need to look at regarding...

    VOIP over Cat 5e Shielded Cable?

    Yep, I am with everyone else...why the shielding? Unless you are installing these in a very high RFI area you should not need shielding. Are these going into a regular office environment? Cat5E will work fine and will not affect the call quality. I was miserable, then someone told me "smile...

    CICS single station problem.

    It is showing "Not in service" when someone tries to call it. Looks like it is just not being "seen" by the switch, but only on incoming. I was miserable, then someone told me "smile and be happy, things could be worse". So I smiled and was happy...and they were right, things were worse!

    CICS single station problem.

    Already set that up, its showing 224 as it is supposed to. I built the entire thing again after it failed. Every single programmed function is working on it just fine, it just will not allow incoming calls of any kind on that station. I tried to copy another perfectly working set profile onto...

    CICS single station problem.

    Showing 10 reoccurring EVT's on the 247 also. Anyone know what event code this is? I was miserable, then someone told me "smile and be happy, things could be worse". So I smiled and was happy...and they were right, things were worse!

    CICS single station problem.

    No, that was just some additional background information. I was also checking the log and it is showing EVT299 (power-up after power failure) which is explainable. Also showing EVT247...which I do not know what it is and have not been able to find anything else on it. I was miserable, then...

    CICS single station problem.

    In addition, this phone completely died the other day. The set was replaced and it was functioning normally afterwards. I was miserable, then someone told me "smile and be happy, things could be worse". So I smiled and was happy...and they were right, things were worse!

    CICS single station problem.

    I have one station (104 on the block) that has a problem. It is unable to receive incoming calls from both the outside lines and intercom. It is capable of dialling out to both. Anyone have any ideas? All of the setup appears to be the same as all of the other phones in the office. I was...

    Oce Plotters

    Just a plotter. Hate the large format scanners with a passion...much easier just to print from CAD to pdf and email pdf's around...dont lose half your drawing to a scanner. I was miserable, then someone told me "smile and be happy, things could be worse". So I smiled and was happy...and they...

    Oce plotters

    Does anyone have any knowledge of Oce plotters? We are in the market for a new plotter and are looking at the Oce 2236 among others right now. I have not been able to find much information regarding these plotters on the web, do any of you have any good or bad experiences to share regarding...

    Are 568A and B patch cables color coded or labeled wrong

    Marked incorrectly. As for the never seen 568A and 568B patch cables comment...I have rarely ever seen anything wired straight through. 99.99% of every patch cable i have seen (1000's of them by the way) has been either a 568A or B. I have also seen a lot of T1 crossovers and some other...

    outdoor cat 6 solution

    Guys if you dont use protectors you are opening yourself up to a huge mess. Grounding and protection are two of the most important aspects in running any kind of outside plant cable. The NEC even calls for it...if sparkies can do it then telecom should be able to pull it off. Building...

    Cat5e, Cat6, Cat7 installation costs

    As several people have mentioned already Cat 5 for the data and Cat 3 for voice would be the most cost-effective solution for you. This will be good if you do not plan on going to a VOIP application in future. There is very little noticeable difference between Cat 5 and Cat 6, in fact most...

    CAT6 Patch Panel Termination / Certification Problems

    Another thing that you might want to ensure is that you are setting up the parameters in your test instrument correctly. I have used Fluke and Agilent test instruments and I am not really up to speed with the units you are using. Fluke and Agilent have options in their menus to allow you to...

    Why do computers 'hang' at startup when usb drives are inserted?

    Had the same problem goom. We had one machine with a HP printer attached to it (recently added), the printer had a 10 in 1 card reader on it. The machine is fairly old and would not boot past bios on startup. Thought the machine was dead until I accidentally unplugged the printer and...
