Over the years I've been doing this on a case-by-case basis with one end of the CAT5 plugged into my router or switch and the other into a laptop and verifying link speed --- I make my own cables, some of which are quite long reaching across the house.
With no more than 4 seconds of searching I stumbled on this: http://www.amazon.com/HDE-HDE-H11-Networ...B000P1OA1O Presumably you plug one end of a cable in one of them and use the other part to verify the other end. Know of a better one? Cheap is good --- this is for occasional use at home.
