Small error here, should be 4 of 8 and 8 of 8, respectively ;)
- sokoloff 8y agoThe sentence you copied started with an important qualifier: "Counting both ends of a cable," > If you’re new to making cables However, IMO if you're making your own patch cables, you're so far on the wrong side of what's reasonable that I don't know what else to say. Punching down horizontal cabling to jacks makes sense; there's no other choice. Making patch cables is an enormous waste of resources.
