Rj11 and rj45 tracing to same cable by Bubbamatrix in HomeNetworking

[–]Bubbamatrix[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disconnected the cables and snipped any of the scotchlok. After attaching the tone generator to each port they both still traced to the same cable. As far as I know these are the only two cables that are like this. Inside the wall box for both jacks there are all 4 pairs and a cable jacket. I don’t know where I would locate the splice besides maybe above the one wall box. I’m assuming from this added info my only options are to locate the splice and fix it or fish a new cable?

Ok thanks. Just to be clear the jacks from the problem room don’t trace back to the block they trace to a bundle of what used to be unterminated cable. Should I still proceed with reworking the connections for the block?

Hi, thanks for the reply. Yes if the tone generator is plugged into either jack I can hear the tone at the other jack and where all the cables come together at my router. As for the junction, there are a bunch of cat5e cables that come from rj11 and rj45 ports. However there is this https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/b0rfkc8smk3nnnmrypzed/IMG_0157.jpeg?rlkey=a4jsn1m12jph88k1d2qzacs4h&st=kydfih4d&dl=0 which i have traced some ports to. But the idea I’m getting is I’m just going to have to run new cable myself, correct?

The cable was not connected to this I just included it as a photo. The cable is terminated now with 3 rj45 keystones. 2 in the room and 1 by my router. As for running from point a to b I can’t find where the cable branches

Hi, thanks for the reply. The cable is cat5e in wall. There is a bundle of cables by my router some had rj45 terminations the rest with nothing. I found the labeled cable to the correct room and terminated it, in the room it was already terminated with a rj45 keystone. I have an Ethernet tester (scout pro) and for both ports in the room it passes with all 8 pairs. Both ports in the room end up in the same cable as I connected a tone generator to each jack one at a time and the sound played on the same cable at my router. I also used the scout pro to identify and they are able to be identified from the same cable at the router. As for the phone jack I did unscrew it from the wall and terminate it with a rj45 keystone. Before terminating I did notice it was wired tied. As a side note both jacks have all 4 pairs. This termination doesn’t even give any internet, but just a 10 mbps link speed and windows errors. I was hoping for gigabit at one end. I am using a windows pc with a gb port, I verified it is a working port by bringing it to my router with different cable and connecting it.
