"Cut your losses! Over the weekend, an unrelated third party was working on demo in another suite on a separate floor in our client’s building. After they inadvertently severed 70 cables, they actually stripped and twisted in this homemade patch. That’s right, they reconnected every single one, both ends, by hand. As you can imagine, with no way for these wizards to identify the correct cables, we had some interesting performance issues come Monday." -- CablingInstall.com Reader B.T., Michigan
