[QUOTE="Arik Semagin, post: 114883, member: 5072"] Re: X32 Discussion I've made thousands of those RJ-45 connectors doing data networks. Normally customer specifies brands and sometimes even part numbers of cable and connectors, those that were tested for maximum performance. A simple continuity tester doesn't reveal this, you'll need something like Pentascanner to measure actual signal degradation. Good thing is that we operate at 100MBps at the most (AES50, Ethersound), so it's not that critical as in Gigabit data networks. Cable is very different indeed, especially plenum-rated, plastic is harder. BTW what gets stripped on cable when making ends is only outer jacket, individual conductors' insulation isn't. RJ-45 cuts through it when crimped. [/QUOTE]
