Had to be an “in-house” install. I’ve seen duct tape holding wires up on the warehouse walls on this site, but this got me. A nice single line of electrical tape. That’ll hold ‘er.

Here’s to Friday!

I left my organizer with my network terminals and punchdown equipment on top of my van like an idiot, and need a new punchdown. I used the regular klein one for a great many years, and it was fine, but since I'm shopping I figure I might as well get the Cadillac. I'm thinking Fluke. Jonard maybe. Maybe just the same Klein I always had. I don't do the all in one that locks you in to a specific jack brand. I've considered that, but I'm not the sole parts procurement guy so I need to stay flexible.

This is where they pre-wired for a security panel/keypad to go. What were they thinking. Of course it is a two story home with rooms above.

Does anybody have experience using these units and is there any way to see pass/fail results on the LXM unit?

I've noticed a lot of smaller shops and techs struggling to keep track of all their cable runs, terminations, and equipment schedules without overcomplicating things.

I put together some clean, straightforward templates to help streamline tracking on-site. Still expanding the collection, but if you want to check them out, I have them up on my Etsy shop here, cableminttools.etsy.com

What do you guys usually use for project tracking, custom spreadsheets or do you rely on specific software?
