If your tester only test 6 wires, yes. Cat 5e & 6 should test all 8.

Got any recommendations for an ethernet cable tester? I don't make
cables,
just want to test them. Prices on Amazon are all over the board.

I use a Klein Tools LAN Scout Junior Tester. Easy to use, works great.

IBM i on Power Systems: For when you can't afford to be out of business!

I'm riding a metric century (100 km / 65 miles) in the American Diabetes
Association's Tour de Cure to raise money for diabetes research,
education, advocacy, and awareness. You can make a tax deductible
donation to my ride by visiting http://lsteml.diabetessucks.net. My goal
is $6000 but any amount is appreciated.

See where I get my donations from ... visit
http://lsteml.diabetessucks.net/map for an interactive map (it's a geeky
thing).

I may have diabetes, but diabetes doesn't have me!
