QUOTE(wz3k @ Jul 3 2011, 09:34 PM) I selected Cat6 to future proof the network... but looking at the prices of items I sometime wonder if it is worth it.. however, thinking that I'm doing this once off and don't want to rewire for future, I think Cat6 is safest.. only difference by a few hundreds right.. imagine if you find out in the future that you need rewiring because cat5e is no longer sufficient.. that's going to cost a whole lot more.. Very true. Is the crimping as easy? And also, how about the 90 degree thing? |

hello, got a question to ask! When I did my own patch panel, and run it thru the cable tester, the light flows from 1 to 8 but somehow miss the G. Does that mean the cable is not gigabit?
I'm using Cat6 cable. |

Didn't come with it.
Shouldn't have skimp on cheap cable tester! BTW this is what I got - ![]() Edit: Just read the website, what the heck does this mean: 1. It can test correspondingly double-twisted cables 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and G,meanwile,can judge wrong connection,short circuit and open circuit. ... http://www.3nc.com/sbdzapeng.htm This post has been edited by eclipse-space: Aug 23 2011, 10:57 PM |
