The "only" ethernet connects I have personally seen, use common flat 2 wire RJ45 type connections. Even though the wire has four strands, I believe only two are used. I have "never" made up a ethernet cable but cat5 is really just another wiring system. I have used cat5 extensively with twinax terminals and printers. Only two strands of wire are used. As I stated very early on, I could be wrong. 100BaseT is a different critter all the way around. Kirk Goins wrote: > > pat, I can see your point on say a 10Base2 or 10Base5 coax cables. What about >10 or 100BaseT (cat5)? There are 4 pairs of wires.
