Features

Digital vs Analog

Only IntelliTone™ Pro Toners and Probes offer the powerful combination of digital and analog technologies to resolve common infrastructure problems that arise during installing, maintaining, and changing of your network.

Digital and analog toning in one tool.
Today’s media networks are more diverse than ever.  Most buildings have a combination of telephone, twisted-pair data, coax, and security/alarm wiring.  Verifying proper routing and termination of this diverse set of cabling types requires tools optimized for different frequencies, connector types, and work environments.  Until now, no single tool has combined the right technologies to operate across all copper media types, and in all environments.  IntelliTone Pro changes that by combining cutting-edge digital and analog signaling to locate and verify virtually any copper cable, regardless of application or environment. 

When to use digital
IntelliTone Pro’s digital encoded signal should primarily be used on high-grade data cabling (Cat 5e/6/6a), and in active network environments.  It operates at a high-frequency to match the higher frequency data the cable plant is designed to carry. This allows the tone to overcome competing data signals and aggressive low-frequency terminations of Ethernet switches. That means LAN cabling technicians can quickly zero in on the right cable during installations or troubleshooting. 

Digital toning is especially helpful once the cable has been located as it displays cable wiremap and checks for shorts, opens and miswires.  The IntelliTone Pro 200 probe has an RJ45 input port and CableMap feature, allowing it to be plugged directly into a patch panel or wall port.  The benefit of this wiremap test is two-fold.  It eliminates the need for both a toner to a wiremapper, and provides 100% confirmation that the right cable has been located.

When to use analog
IntelliTone Pro’s SmartTone analog toning can be used on voice-grade cabling (Cat 3 and below), as well as coax, security/alarm, and speaker wiring.  These cables are optimized for lower frequency transmissions, and therefore are more easily isolated with a low-frequency tone.  It should also be used in areas with relatively low interference from electronic devices.  In high-interference environments, digital may still be a better choice.

SmartTone analog toning eliminates frustrating guesswork locating individual wire pairs during installations.  The SmartTone analog signal will change ‘songs’ each time the pair under test is shorted together.  This provides telecom technicians a decisive way to identify individual wire pairs before punching them down on a jack or a block, or when diagnosing voice transmission problems.

Locate and Isolate Cabling

Isolate Terminated Cables
The IntelliTone™ Pro Toner uses the unique properties of twisted pair cabling to create a balanced signal that minimizes the effect of signal bleed. The smart digital signal processing in the IntelliTone™ Pro Probe clearly identifies this signal with audio and LED visual indicators, allowing you to rapidly isolate the correct cable from a bundle or on a patch panel. IntelliTone™ eliminates hours of cable confusion—and you can count on getting it right the first time.

Isolate Individual Wire Pairs
With traditional analog toners and probes, isolating individual wire pairs precisely can be almost impossible because of signal bleed between pairs.  As a result, wire pairs are often routed and terminated incorrectly the first time. Redoing incorrect terminations or pulling new wiring wastes tremendous amounts of time and money.  IntelliTone Pro’s SmartTone analog technology cuts out the guesswork and improves accuracy by providing definitive confirmation when the pair under test is located.  Just short the pair under test, and the audible tone will change its cadence.  The difference is dramatic.

Verify Cable Continuity

Eliminate callbacks during cabling moves, adds and changes with the powerful diagnostic capabilities of IntelliTone. The IntelliTone Pro 200 Probe features a CABLEMAP capability that identifies common cable miswires in twisted pair cabling. IntelliTone technology automates the testing of each conductor for end-to-end continuity; LED lights and tones clearly indicate miswires such as opens, shorts or reversed pairs.

Tone Live Networks

Modern network devices use aggressive termination schemes for cables connected to their ports. While this termination reduces noise and crosstalk in the cable, it can also absorb an analog toner signal, making the connected cable impossible to detect with an analog audio probe. The result is that locating an unlabeled network can take hours with analog technology. Unlike analog signals, the IntelliTone digital signal stays strong despite common mode termination. And the IntelliTone Pro Toner automates toning individual cable conductors, making it quick, efficient and safe to locate cables on active networks.

Identify Telecom Services

Identify and diagnose POTS with multi-line Telco detect, polarity and ring indication

Service - Is the RJ45 jack a datacom jack, a phone jack or a dead jack? IntelliTone Pro 200 Toners take the guesswork out of hunting for an active jack, or a jack with the right service. LEDs clearly identify common services found on today's networks, including telecom and datacom services and 10/100/1Gb Ethernet links.

Telecom Troubleshooting - Check telecom services with Line 1 continuity and polarity testing on the IntelliTone Pro 100 and 200 Toners. The IntelliTone Pro 200 Toner adds Line 2 troubleshooting. Confirm telecom circuits with the built-in talk battery capability.

Verify Ethernet Service

Perform moves, adds and changes with powerful diagnostic capabilities of the IntelliTone Pro 200 Toner & Probe

Toning - IntelliTone makes it easy to quickly locate the cable in the equipment closet when performing moves, adds and changes. Unconnected cable can be quickly isolated in the presence of bleed.

Cablemap - The IntelliTone Pro 200 Probe features a CABLEMAP capability that identifies common cable miswires in twisted pair cabling. Complete per-pin verification of TIA568 wiring identifies the exact wire that is open, shorted or miswired. LED lights and distinctive tones clearly indicate miswires. The built-in Cablemap feature eliminates the need to carry separate tools or returning to the far-end to replace the toner with a mapper. The IntelliTone Pro 200 Kit is the all-in-one tool to locate and map Category 5 cabling even when plugged into a switch, and verify link service after moves, adds and changes.

Verify Ethernet Service - Is the link pulse correct, reversed due to a swap cable of uplink port, or MDIX capable? Identify active Ethernet services present at the office wallplate. LED lights clearly indicate the presence of normal, reversed or MDIX Ethernet link connectivity.

Cable Toning Tips

IntelliTone Pro is a digital toning system optimized for toning into modern network equipment and Category 5 cabling. To achieve this, IntelliTone uses radio frequencies and a digital tone packet that drives all 4 pairs with a variety of toning methods.

Datacom network moves, adds and changes using IntelliTone Pro Toners and Probes
In recent years, installation of structured cable has been to uniform standards. The TIA-568A standard requires that all work areas be wired with a minimum of two jacks with the horizontal cabling being four-pair 100 ohm UTP. This typically consists of 2 or more Cat5e cable runs directly from a wall plate jack to a patch panel.

 

Plugging in
IntelliTone is a digital toning system featuring an 8-position modular jack. This allows the toner to be plugged in either at the wall jack with the included patch cable or, if the wall jack is obstructed but connected, the patch cable can be removed from the PC and plugged directly into the toner.

Wall jacks are often unmarked or misconnected. Adding to the confusion, the 8-position modular jack can be used for either data or telecom services.

Service ID provides the first clue
The IntelliTone Pro 200 Toner features a service ID indicating the presence of service on the line. When plugged in to a wall jack, it provides the first indication of where to look for the cable in the closet. A 4-position jack is sure to be telecom service, whereas an 8-position jack could be telecom or data (network) connection. The presence of telecom service typically means looking for the signal on a 110 block with an active connection to the phone system.

The presence of Ethernet  indicates the connection is active and best located on the patch cables from the patch panel to the switch. If the connection is open then it likely not patched or connected. If the open LED is extinguished, the toner is detecting a connection across the center pins of the jack. This could be an un-plugged network device or unrecognized service.

Locating in the closet

The tone can be located on un-patched connections by moving the probe from jack to jack on the patch panel. It is typical to get a reading of 4-6 in locate mode  with the black probe tip inserted into the jack. Neighboring jacks and cable will exhibit lower signal levels as indicated by the LED display.

If the service identification in the office indicated an Ethernet connection, the user should begin probing the cables that are patched to active network equipment. It is typical to get a reading of 7-8 on the toned cable.

Once the cable is located, the IntelliTone Pro 200 probe provides a Cablemap to assure correct pin-to-pin wiring. By removing the patch cable from the switch, or by plugging a patch cable into the patch panel jack, the complete end-to-end wiring can be verified for opens, shorts, or mis-wires.

When in tight spaces or in the presence of bleed, the isolate  position will help eliminate bleed and provide more granularity on the stronger LEDs. This will aid in differentiating the toned cable or jack from its neighbors by providing a couple of LED levels of difference in strength. Additionally Cablemap always provides a definitive indication of the toned cable.

Toning from the closet to office jack

Occasionally toning may be performed from the patch panel to the office jack. If the jacks are very closely spaced or it is difficult to insert the probe tip in the jack, there may only be one or two levels of signal strength difference. If more differentiation is required for extremely close jacks, a short patch cable can be used to effectively distance the jacks by probing the cable as it is moved from jack to jack. The same patch cable can then be used to validate the correct cable using the Cablemap feature on the IntelliTone Pro 200 probe.

Telecom moves, adds, changes using IntelliTone
Most office installations consist of a one or more data and telephone drops. On the telecom side, there can be a variety of jacks and wiring schemes ranging from a single pair on a 4-position wall jack to 4 pairs connected from the 8 position modular jack to the terminating block.

Wiring Schemes
In the office, the wall plate jack may be 6 or 8-postion, with the 6-position jack having 4 or 6 pins. Horizontal cabling uses 1, 2, 3, or 4 pairs and can range from Category 3 to Category 5 cable. In the closet, the horizontal cabling will typically terminate on a 110 block, or in older sites a 66 block. The block may be directly connected to the PBX if this is the main distribution frame (MDF), or cross-connected to another location if this is an intermediate distribution frame (IDF). Current practice, per TIA-568A standard, consists of an 8-position jack in the office with 4-pair 100 ohm UTP connected to a 110 block.

 

Plugging into a jack
The IntelliTone toner features an 8-position modular jack that accepts 4, 6 or 8 position male plugs. The included 4 and 8 position patch cables allow the toner to be plugged into the wall jack.

If the wall jack is obstructed but connected, the patch cable can be disconnected at the phone, and the male plug, be it 4, 6 or 8 position can be connected directly to the toner female jack.

Plugging in to a 66 or 110 block
There are a variety of ways to connect the toner to the pair. The supplied alligator test leads makes bare wire attachment possible. For piercing wires, Fluke Networks offers the MT-8203-20, a telecom 5-way Alligator Lead Set with a bed of nails.

The telecom 5-way Alligator Lead Set also offers a secure attachment to 66 blocks using the U shaped nose for blade shaped terminals. It is also possible to use a 66 quick clip and connect to the toner using the 8-position modular plug.

For 110 blocks, a standard 1-pair 110 to modular plug patch cable can be plugged directly into the toner modular jack.
 
There are also various 110 test adapters that provide a modular jack for connection to the toner.

Isolate Individual Wire Pairs
The IntelliTone digital signal is subject to significant bleed-over between pairs in a cable.  This is especially true for Cat 3 cabling.  Because of this, IntelliTone’s analog mode is recommended for isolating individual pairs.  The SmartTone™ analog mode should be used because of its ability to change cadence when the pair under test is shorted.  When the pair under test is not terminated, the copper conductors can be touched together briefly to cause a short.  When this happens, the tone will change its cadence to indicate that the correct pair has been located.  If the pair is terminated on a 66 or 110 block, it may be necessary to short the pair together with a pair of insulated pliers.

In the distribution frame
In the closet, the telecom jack will typically terminate on a 110 block. The block may be directly connected to the PBX if this is the MDF, or cross-connected another location if this is an IDF. More recent installations, per the TIA-568 standard, consist of an RJ-45 jack in the office with all 4 pairs punched down on the 110 block. Locate the cable by touching wire with the tip, either the insulation or by making metalic contact.

Once located, the office wiring can be verified for shorts, opens and mis-wires using a standard 110 to 8-position patch cable and the Cablemap feature on the IntelliTone Pro 200 probe. The cables are readily available in 1, 2 and 4-pair 110 connection in TIA-568A, TIA-568B or Universal Service Ordering Code (USOC) formats. The Cablemap results will show the correct order when the patch cable matches the wiring scheme, be it TIA-568A, TIA-586B and USOC.

The IntelliTone Pro probe supports the time-honored practice of making contact with the finger. While often done on 66 blocks, it is possible to make the contact with the 110 connections using a metallic object. Using the body to conduct the signal is a good way to move the probe away from noise sources and identify individual wires when metallic contact is possible.

Locating Cables on an Active PBX System
Some PBX lines generate signals in the operating frequency of IntelliTone as seen by the SYNC LED flashing red. In this case, it may be difficult for IntelliTone to differentiate the PBX signal from the IntelliTone signal.  Once again, it is recommended to use IntelliTone’s analog mode for this application.  Make sure that both the IntelliTone Pro Toner and the IntelliTone Pro Probe are in analog mode.

Moves, adds, changes completion
When returning to the office to retrieve the toner, the presence of the correct services on the correct jacks can quickly be verified using the IntelliTone Pro 200 toner Service ID feature. The verification of the correct patching and connection, including datacom or telecom services, can be performed prior to the computer or phone being present.
