What Everyone is Saying About the SQ-iD

It (SQ-iD) just makes sense. Why wouldn’t you use it?

“This is so easy my dog could probably figure it out, but my 8 year old, no problem. We have 3 buildings with this system installed, and this will be in our 4th. ”

This is awesome!

“Anyone who has spent half a day looking for a patch panel port in the closet will immediately know the value of the SQ-iD.”

A big time saver!

“No more climbing into my car for a 3 hour drive that my terminal manager can now do in 5 minutes (successfully I might add).”

Simply genius!

“I can stand 10 feet away at the door of my server closet and know exactly the outlet I’m looking for. Even with the lights out. Out of curiosity, I asked 2 plumbers clearing a drain line if they could figure out which outlet it was. They did and went back to clearing the drain line. ”

Highly recommended!

“We probably spend monthly on service calls, lost time and lost productivity not to mention the frustration associated with trying to manage our data cabling for what the SQ-iD costs.”

We now have a consistent labeling scheme.

“With 14 locations across 5 states and a different installation company at every location we end up with 14 different labeling schemes. The SQ-iD will mean 14 labeling schemes that are all exactly the same that any of our employees can figure out.”

This will save a lot of time!

"No more unplugging the computer and trying to figure out which link light went out on the switch. That ought to save a lot of time."

We use the SQ-iD system in multiple locations.

"We put our first SQ-iD system at our distribution center. We now have it in 2 of our stores. If it didn’t work, we wouldn’t keep putting it in."

Doesn't get any easier than this!

"The best thing is the extensive user manual. Just plug it in and look for the flashing green light. Doesn’t get any easier than this."

Who is the SQ-iD™ System for?

Best suited for organizations with a centralized IT support unit at one location and multiple locations spread out over a campus, a city, a state……the world with no professional IT personnel at these sites relying primarily on the sites manager to assist them with simple service issues. 

Centralized IT could also be a single location being supported by a third party offsite integration company working with employees to solve simple maintenance tasks avoiding an expensive site visit just to find the correct patch panel port for example.

How does Squidlite™'s identification lighting work?

Bright, flashing green LEDs make identification fast and easy even in the most congested, messy, and darkest of closets.

The signal injector plugs directly into the AUX outlet, which sends a signal to the SQ-iD™ panel identifying the correct jacks.

How does the outlet communicate with the patch panel?

The connections from SQ-iD™ outlets to SQ-iD™ panels are made using industry standard 22 gauge wire. The 22/2 not only illuminates the LED on the patch panel but also is integral in eliminating the mistakes associated with the rough in installation. It is what allows the installer to stop labeling the cables and cable boxes thus eliminating the labeling mistakes associated with that task. The 22/2 becomes the cable label that is always right

None of your patch panels are numbered like other manufactured patch panels. Why is that?

When you install a pre-numbered patch panel you immediately start to head down the path of labeling mistakes. 3 pre-numbered patch panels in the same rack means you have 3 number 8's. We looked hard into why labeling mistakes occur and pre-numbered patch panels were a major contributor.
