Abstract

Methods of automatically tracking a patching connection between a first connector port of a patch panel and a second connector port of a network device are provided in which a sensor is used to detect that a first end of a patch cord has been inserted into the second connector port. The patch cord has at least one data communications channel and a separate control channel. A first conductor of the control channel of the patch cord is biased to power an integrated circuit chip on the network device. In response to the detection by the sensor, a first signal is transmitted over the separate control channel of the patch cord to the network device. A second signal is received over the control channel of the patch cord in response to the first signal. The second signal includes a unique identifier that is associated with the second connector port.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to communication patching systems, and more particularly, the present invention relates to systems and methods for automatically tracking patch connections in a communication patching system. Background technique [0002] Many businesses have dedicated communication systems that enable computers, servers, printers, fax machines, etc. to communicate with each other over a private network, and with remote locations through telecommunications service providers. Such communication systems may be hardwired using communication cables through, for example, the walls and / or ceilings of a building providing a commercial business. Typically, communication cables contain 8 insulated copper wires arranged into 4 differential twisted pairs that can be used to carry 4 separate differential signals, but in some cases can be replaced Use fiber optic communication cables. Individual connector ports, such as RJ-45 style modular ...
