The apparatus also includes one or more tracer lights, each being positioned adjacent to a corresponding one of the jacks. The apparatus further includes one or more switches, each being operably associated with a corresponding one of the jacks and selectable to cause another tracer light at the endpoint to illuminate while the at least one of the signal conductors is communicating signals between the respective jack and the endpoint by using one or more of the signal conductors of the cable.
