Q:I found my home panel is wired CAT 5e - 568A and all cables are 568B. One of my runs is capped at 100 MHz while the 7 others are at 1 GHz. I picked up the Klein LAN Scout Jr. 2 and got 21654387 results? Panel and Jack look fine? Thoughts. Thanks

Answer This Question
A: The VDV526-052 LAN Scout Jr. works with cross-over cable.
“Pass” illuminates if the cable is a properly wired 4-pair T568A/B data cable or cross-over (uplink) cable. A cross-over cable will have the pin numbers of the crossed pairs flashing and will alternate with “C”.
For more information, please see the “Instructions/Assembly” document under Info & Guides.
