So heres my scenario:
I got 4 guys going to NYC tommorrow to wire up about 600 wires. They didnt label the wires, don't ask why, so they are going to label them tommorrow.
Normally they'd walk around with a laptop, plug it into a jack and see which light gets turned on, on the switch, and they'd label the wire. However, 600 jacks carrying a laptop, will get tiring/etc..
So i figured i could make a small device thats battery operated that i can put in a tiny box that they can plug into the network switch, and have the switch, light up, as if a laptop was plugged in.
Anyway know how to do this? Which pins would i need to "trigger" or send power over via 12v (or a different voltage) that'll make the network swtich light, turn on???
