Hi,

I fixed both ends, which were the same, 1 thru 8 to 1 thru 8 instead of 1&2 to 1&2, 3&6 to 3&6, 4&5 to 4&5, 7&8 to 7&8, which is I suppose why the "tester" didn't see a problem!

Yesterday, I made a mistake in a cable 3&4 swapped at one end), & the tester found that immediately (visual inspection also could have!).

Sometimes two wrongs can make a right...
Did you check or repair both ends?

"Sometimes" cables do not "have to be" "standard",
as long as "the mistake" was made on both ends...

I have seen cross-connected optical feeds "correct"
themselves by having a double cross-connect...
(Slightly different I know, but the same general idea...)
