[AusNOG] Pokethernet cable tester

[Matt Perkins]

Austel hasn't been around for about 10 years and the ACMA typically don't require test equipment to be approved. Is your multi meter approved ? Your F-set ? TDR? 

It's not for permanent connection to the PSTN in any case. 

I think your license is safe. 

Matt
