I used to be very interested in telecommunications equipment. In particular, payphones. Often while playing around with them, I wondered if there was a way to reliably determine which piece of conduit contained the actual twisted pair. It turns out that in the case of payphones with lighted signs above them, it’s as simple as looking for the conduit which continues up, even if it takes a break at the payphone enclosure level.
