BTW is it time yet to improve on RJ-45? Esp as ethernet typically uses 4 wires - its ridiculously large.

- amichal 8y agoGig E uses all eight. Just learned this recently when some of the Wi-Fi access points in the office kept falling back to 100mbit
- Aloha 8y agothe RJ-45 is 8 wires, 4 pairs, and is designed to be easy to connect up by field personnel, and be cheap.
- AWildC182 8y agoThis^ I actually quite like the design because it's so easy to create connectors in the field with a couple simple tools. Don't have to strip the conductors or solder anything, just cut the sheath off, align the wires and shove it into the crimper. Edit: and all this with connectors that are dirt cheap.
