I would definitely check the crimper, and make sure it's crimping all the pins down all the way. One of our installers was complaining about cables not latching into ePMP radios awhile back, turned out to be a worn out crimper... they still latched into UBNT ethernet ports fine, but apparently Cambium's ports are a little tighter (of course cables that weren't crimped properly were most likely causing plenty of other problems too, so it was actually a good thing).
