Abstract

The objective of this project is to design and construct a Network Cable Tester with liquid crystal display (LCD display). This tester can be used to detect the network cable continuity and polarity. It will be connected at one cable edge of the connection, where the status can be displayed by using LCD. The status can help the cable installer to judge on the installation and connection condition. Result is displayed on a backlit LCD screen indicating continuity, opens, shorts, and mismatches. The features of this LCD network cable tester are hand-held and easy operation, automatic power shutdown. This network cable tester will test for several types of cable such as shielded and nonshielded cables. The shielded and non-shielded cables include unshielded twisted pair (UTP), and shielded twisted pair. This project requires electronic circuit basic design about LCD circuit, timer and electronics simulations. Besides, this project also need network installation knowledge and technique especially on the status and problems of RJ 45 cables such as continuity, polarity, opens, shorts, and mismatched.
