[QUOTE="Anthony Martin, post: 129743, member: 4968"] Re: Manual X32 My immediate concerns are with the "Converta-Shell" connector design. There has been so much made of the ESD shielding requirements specific to the X32, particularly the need to fully enclose the RJ45 plug as it mates with the etherCON panel connector. I don't have a "Converta-Shell" connector in front of me so I can't say with any real certainty but, looking at the online pictures, it seems that there might not be any direct electrical connection from the shell to the RJ45 plug. It is good to see that they are physically soldering the drain wire to the RJ45 plug on both ends--a practice that many of us have been using for years with shielded Cat5e. [/QUOTE]
