So here's the situation, i'm redoing some stuff in the basement.. wiring everywhere!
I have run some new cat5e lines no problems... but the ones that are in the houseare different!
Cable is Commscope 0509 cat5 yadda yadda
Orange
Orange/White
Brown
Brown/White
Slate
Slate/White
Clear?
Clear?/White..
Attached to the patch panel they are wired this way..
1 = white/orange
2 = orange
3 = white/clear
4 = slate
5 = white/clear
6 = clear
7 = brown/white
8 = brown
When I crimp in this order to an rj-45 connector, then plug it into my switch... the light comes on, but the actual computer that it's connected to doesn't connect... I plugged in another switch, upstairs to the same line and it just blinks really really fast.. at that connection point?
Any help would be great!
Happy Holiday!
