To be or not to be
T568B

My fingers are burning
My patience is gone
Is this the price of learning
Network engineering on my own?

Had I instead chosen T568A
Would it have been a child’s play?
Nay, ended up with a crossover cable, I would have
Becoming crazy, becoming mad
Suitable for patching similar devices
Unfit for my goals, unrewarding of my sacrifices

    The only part of making patch cables I reguarly have trouble with is actually getting the strands into the end before crimping. Sometimes they just wanna bend and bounce off the hole without actually going in deep enough for the thing to crimp onto. 🫩

    I did this pretty much daily when working as an installer for a wireless ISP service. Usually it’d take no time at all. Other times I’d fight the damn thing for 20 minutes just getting it into the end cap.
