Random failures and short circuits.

Very strange problem with the last batch I received. Get random opens and shorts. Something I've never seen in an RJ45 crimp in over 20 years of termination. I've seen crossovers and open tops, but I've never seen shorts. Also shows poor or weak connection, no GB connection at 80ft. Reterminated twice with the same Cat6 cable (22AWG) and still only 100MB. Good brand cable, even used 2 different types. I'll look for another passage to use with the Klein tool.

Pros
