Small office had cat 5 cable ran for future use but not connected at either end.
Today I terminated the wall out lets and crimped rj45 on other end for connection to a switch.
That was the end of my knowledge, I did play around trying to get the wired network to work, but with no joy.
Im not sure the gear they have in place is correct, so would like some guidance on what is needed to run a small network
The company want to install time clocks to monitor staff in - out for payroll.
The time clocks need to be connected to the internet, they need to be connected by a cable (not wireless)
It is this connection from the wall plate to the router I am unsure about
From the wall plate he cable re emerges in another room where they have a Netgear Gs524T 24 port switch
Plugged into this switch is a apple time capsule, which I believe is controlling the wireless network.
The switch has no direct link to the router
Connecting a cable from the router to the switch disconnects the wireless network.
I wonder if someone could give me the basic structure needed from wall plate to connection to the router for wired internet connection
Thanks
