This was done my building management. D-1 port is connected to my modem (ISP for internet).
- i see modem is wired in this way using some hardware which is at the top. Not sure what is this one called. Is this for data or telephone not sure. But my rooms has RJ45 (ethernet ports only),no telephone ports. So i am assuming LAN should be enabled. Unfortunately my room LAN port is not working, means no data when i connect using cable to my computer or wifi router.
I am planning to use room LAN port to WIFI router so i can get good coverage.
Can anyone help to understand how i can test and find where is the problem. The wiring is new so should not be bad.
Thank you all in advance.
You’re assuming wrongly, they use RJ-45 wall jacks even for telephone. The numbering suggests that D-1 is the only port wired for data, the T ports are wires for telephone. The punch down block at the top shows only 1 pair connected per destination —> telephone. To convert one of these to Ethernet, you’d need to pull it out of the punch down block and instead punch all 4 pairs into a CAT6 jack.
The object at the top is called a Krone block. The bad news is that it is set up for telephone service. You see how the wires alternate blue, yellow, blue, yellow? If it was ready for data you would see a sequence of eight colours.
You would need to completely rewire this to get anything more than the current data port active. This is possible, but if you don’t own the property it may not be allowed. Does it belong to you?
Thanks after some detail research found that my room has wired but main box is not connected for TEL nor Data. Also Data wiring is not properly done as mentioned by bizzare, also merkuran was right. So my solution is
- Rewire all 8 wires to male cat 6 which is wired to all rooms
- wire TEL line also same way.
