Zusammenfassung: | A system determines and monitors the connection pattern of data ports which are connected by multiconductor cables without requiring special patch cables or patch panels. An adapter jacket (7) having an external contact (8) is placed over a standardized cable (3) which connects the data ports. An adapter board (14) having a plurality of socket contacts (12) is placed adjacent a plurality of data ports. Output and input modules are coupled to the socket contacts (12). A microprocessor which is coupled to the output and input modules scans the socket contacts (12) to determine the connection pattern of the data ports. |
