DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF AUTOMATIC LAN CABLE TESTER

Abstract

This project 1S a continuity tester which tests a computer networking cable for the correctness and continuity ofthe cable type. The networking cable aids the connection of similar, dissimilar and Cisco devices for the sharing and transfer of data between one and the other. The project is designed with the use of micro processor as the main processor unit of the work. It processes the input signal of the cable and gives an output on a 7 Segment based on the processed signal. Other components that are put together to make this project achievable are resistors, reset button, RJ-45 jack, crimping tool, capacitors, crystal oscillator, normally open switc
