## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this pinout outer pins in so 1-8, 2-7, 3-6 and 4-5?**
A: Not what I get when connecting this loopback to the end of an Ethernet cable and connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to a Trendnet model TC-NT2 transmitter (Ethernet cable tester).  The loopback appears to connect these: 1-3, 2-6 other pins are not interconnected.  Hope this helps. There are other models of the Superlooper available.  Mine is the Blue one.

**Q: will this check an ethernet jack in the wall??**
A: Depends.  It will check an Ethernet cable in any location -- but many wall cables will be routed through at least one switch if not multiple pieces of hardware.

**Q: Would this work for testing network ports on a computer rather than a switch/router?**
A: The loopback adapter can be used on any standard 10/100 Ethernet port, including the ports on a computer.

**Q: I plug it in to one of the 48ports on the switch, briefly there is an orange light on the port, then off. Is that how it's supposed to work?**
A: Yes, If you get the amber warning light that indicates a loop back.

    Works fine, simple to use
  

*by M***D on Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2007*

Just plug this in to do a basic test of your Ethernet wires or jacks.It can be used to remotely turn on the indicator lamp on your router or switch so you can see what Ethernet wire each computer is on.Plugging it in makes the router or switch think a computer is plugged into it.  So you can turn on your router "sync" light to verify the connection without having to plug in a computer when you are testing your wall jacks.

    I bought this for work...
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2013*

to test Ethernet connectivity in our network.  It allows you to set up a loop in various points within your network to troubleshoot any bad connections.  Thank goodness I never had to use it.  But it was good to have this device on hand just in case.

    Great to have
  

*by M***H on Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2013*

Looks like a high quality product but I honestly haven't used it yet. I am sure it works great because the quality looks more that satisfactory. It is a great tool to have in the kit when working on networks.
