In a dusty (or bug ridden) location,
dielectric on cat-5 can save you truck rolls. Often the problem
does not occur for about two years, but dielectric does seem to
keep the grit out of the connection.

I think we just had this conversation 2 weeks ago :)
Yes some are... I'm not. Might start.

Some people are. Majority are not. No ones seems to have any evidence

I wonder if corrosion could be a cause for CRC errors we see on some of
our APs.

Could be... I brought this up a few weeks ago for the exact reason.
When we take APs out of production after a few years the Ethernet
connectors are often corroded.

Yeah, we use it on RJs and definitely on RF connectors. I believe a few years

We have been and it has eliminated ethernet issues due to bad cable or bad
weatherproofing. I've seen where the cable jacket is messed up, water in
the ethernet connector area, but because the grease was used it prevented
the ethernet from failing.
We've also seen issues where the LMR cabling
Where do you get it in reasonable quantity and how would it be used
in N connectors.
Starting to see some water ingress on old, 5year, weather
proofed N connections.
