I am a rank amateur and credit what little success I've had to using the Tyco connectors. I was skeptical at first when I was told how much better they were, but I'm beginning to think they might actually be a superior product. If you need a few patch cables then buying is good. If you need tons of them buying good. I fall into the middle where building them with good tools and good parts maximizes reliability, flexibility, and cost containment. -- Mike Moving forward in pushing back the envelope of the corporate paradigm. -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
