Solve : LAN Wiring & Pinouts? |

Answer» LAN Wiring & Pinouts Quote There is NOTHING more annoying than spending 30 minutes debugging a network problem to find it was the CABLE. Badly MADE or non-standard cabling is a foolish thing ...This is an old LINK, but if you need it, you need it. http://www.zytrax.com/tech/layer_1/cables/tech_lan.htm Somewhat along the same topic, if you are going to buy bulk cable and make your own connectors: DON'T BUY CHEAP CABLE!!!! I've made hundreds of connectors and generally had a 90 to 95 % SUCCESS rate. A tech that worked for me and made many times more connectors than I did probably had a 99% success rate. He bought a 1,000' roll of cable for about half what we usually paid and we both had a 90% failure rate. We ended up throwing out the remaining cheap cable, bought a good roll and were back on track. |
