CAT5 Tester, Remote Tester

Here are a few images during the construction of the remote tester unit.

Starts out like this...

Added an RJ45 socket, and circuit board mounts.  This RJ45 socket did not have a shield.  So I made one from a piece of aluminum from a soda can.  I made paper template of the shield then cut one and installed it.

Heres a pic of the leds in place to determine final location.

 

At this point the unit is working but the top cover needs to be modified for final use.

Taped up and ready to cut.

Cover removed, almost finished.

Here is the completed remote.
