Zusammenfassung:Determining patch cord connectivity information by receiving, at each of a plurality of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) readers (1, 2, 3), a signal from an RFID tag that is associated with a patch cord, and identifying the one of a plurality of connector ports that the patch cord is connected to based at least in part on respective strengths of the signals received at each of the plurality of RFID readers. RFID triangulation systems and methods of calibrating such systems are also provided.
