[QUOTE="Amcevoy, post: 1118939, member: 417066"] Pretty much. Neither is powered at the adaptor end. Problem is I’ve no idea who the other subscriber is - as you can see (maybe not) not much is marked up in there. Obviously with data protection nobody is going to tell me who the other person is unless I was to just go door knocking but I don’t see that ending well and my block has close to 200 flats. I can only assume they have used a power inserter inside a residents flat to power the adaptors.
