thanks, that echo's my last post on this, but with a bit more class (of course) and more facts and figures, again of course (I always have to wonder how he finds this stuff? it never comes up on my googles)

Because I'm sorry but accessible ethernet is not worth the over 10 billion dollars of expense that would incur world wide.

Don't worry, ethernet's on the way out. Cat 7's going to be the end of the line I think since light peak and other technologies can easily provide 10 gb/s and 100gb/s with improved tranceivers on either end. If you add on different modulation schemes on top of that, it's easy to see how the same media can facilitate tb/s speeds with only hardware upgrades on either end.

Take care,
Sina

unless there is a color reader with a very minimal viewing area or a
narrow or corner mounted view lens, no, there is no distinguishing factors
to the separate wires inside the cable themselves.

been there done this drill,

working with the tools for this isn't hard, and you should talk to your
instructor, mine (an ex-air force major) actually worked with me herself
and we made a working cable, but she did have to read and hand me the
wires.

if you go to do this, just remember to find and keep track of the curved
cutter hook on the tool, it is really sharp and would not be hard to lose
track of and slice yourself a good one, when using it, PAY! ATTENTION!

good luck,

Hi all. We are making network cables in a class I am taking. To be
specific, they are straight through cables. Can anyone provide any info
on how I can do this particularly identifying what color each of the
wires are. Is there a factor that will identify it?
Thanks for any help.
