Once the unit is turned on and receiving a strong signal, the installer can then go to the rack where the other end of the cable is and slowly scan the area with the receiver.\u00a0 The cable can then be easily identified as it will be emitting the strongest signal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo ensure efficient installation, maintenance and troubleshooting, this unique circuit tracer is an essential piece of kit for all network and data cable installers, perfect to use alongside IDEAL Networks testers,\u201d concludes Tim.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the SureTrace Circuit Tracer visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.idealcircuit-tracer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.idealcircuit-tracer.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For further information about IDEAL\u2019s full range of products, visit www.idealindustries.co.uk or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/\">www.idealnetworks.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For many network and data cable installers, tracing UTP cables often relies upon trial and error and can be disruptive, as well as costly in terms of labour and customer downtime.&nbsp;<strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_glsr_average":0,"_glsr_ranking":0,"_glsr_reviews":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1453],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-36319","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news-au"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36319","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36319"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36319\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":147843,"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36319\/revisions\/147843"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36319"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36319"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.trend-networks.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=36319"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
