You're right - I was just trying to keep it simple. I've only ever
encountered T568A in the wild at one data center. It is very rare.

Actually, the issue in this case is not whether they're wired the same
(we know it works with a different device, presumably at 10Mbps), but
that the pairing isn't messed up (which would explain failure at
100Mbps).

Usually failure at long lengths and/or higher speeds is caused by #4
and #6 transposed on both ends, a common mistake which standard cable
testers will not reveal as a fault.
