In Reply to: RE: Cooking the Acoustic Revive RLI-1 LAN Isolator posted by Joe Appierto on September 07, 2016 at 12:08:26
RLI-1 has succeeded in cutting the transmission noise to an extremely low level via the combination of an Isolation transformer and Choke coil for common-mode noise.
In my view the Cooker's power supply protection circuitry is not "liking" the signal it sees from the Acoustic Revive LAN isolator....the transformer & choke are "in the way". There also may be a reactance issue with the frequency sweep circuit, which is why the green LED blinked slowly at first, then went "off", no longer displaying it's customary pattern.
Lummy's Ethernet cable has no network circuitry, so it's easily achieving continuity.
In your first instance, it's possible that your USB-to-Ethernet adaptor's internal wiring is incompatible with the wiring of the Acoustic Revive LAN isolator, hence no continuity.
At least you tried....and the Cable Cooker is otherwise in perfect working order.
Follow Ups:
Yes, it's working fine once I removed the LAN isolator from the Ethernet cable.
Once I Cook this generic cable, I'll be able to move onto the two Acoustic Revive cables I normally use. I'll just remove the isolator first from the output side of each of them.

How long do you plan to Cook the generic, and how long for the AR's?
Lummy reported that four days worked very well for him. I was going to do the same. The Monoprice (generic) Cat 7 uses 26AWG conductors. Acoustic Revive doesn't speak to the gauge other than to say "Single Core Cable PCOCC-A technology" with one cable 1M and the other 1.5MYour thoughts?
Thanks, Alan.
EDIT: The Monoprice is 7 feet in length and uses a shielded foil twisted pair design. The Acoustic Revive uses a tourmaline-impregnated dielectric and the terminals a tourmaline impregnated resin.
