I have seen various ways of doing this but I will pass on the way I wire
them.
First, I'm a TV broadcast engineer. Our building is very old, and was
built in 1961 with
no future of anything we face now, LAN/WAN, HDTV etc. ( Hence, reason
why we are constructing a new
facility ). Right next to us is a mall, and inside the premisis is a
5KW AM radio station.
AM at 960Khz gets into everything.
I have wired all the schems I have seen and seems like only one works.
( We have about 100 workstations and other odd TV things ).
Here is how I do it, and the LAN is 10MBps but our on air graphics
system is 100VG ( HP ).
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
WH/BR WH/OR WH/GN BLUE WH/BL GREEN ORN BRN
( TAB DOWN, IMAGINE PINS -- FRONT OF RJ45 TO TOP OF SCREEN ).
Might not be right, but works in our crazy scheme.
BTW, some lame*$$ printer guys installing a new mojo color laser printer
laughed at me.
I told them, OK, try your cable. Guess what, didn't work.
My cable, the one they said couldn't worked, does.
My 2 cents on this.
