I have a Fox 2 tone generator. It won't identify cables that are plugged into the switch. We had a cabling company come in and redo one of our closets, and they were able to connect it to a different pair to tone it out? I'm thinking they connected it directly to the brown and orange, anyone have any tricks for toning out on a live network that doesn't require purchasing a new toner.
 
dont they make a little thing that you can buy at home depot that has a Rj45 on one end, and the other end it's a "Y" cable that basically has like all 8 pins separated, so you can attach alligator clips to the pins/wires you want and tone it out that way?
 
POE switches don't apply power to the ports unless the switch detects a POE device on the remote end... So you'd just use whichever pair (or random wires) you like...
