TONE GENERATION
PoE PRO can be used together with a compatible tone probe (available from IDEAL Networks) to
identify and trace cables. PoE PRO can generate various types of tone on various combinations
of pins. Choice of tone type and pin connection is best determined by experiment, to achieve the
best results with a particular probe type and in a particular cable situation.
