[GRLUG] cable installation

[moosebriard]

I've seen them wire-nutted, taped together...I even saw a whole rack
terminated where the contractor saved half on the amount of cable by
splitting out 2 pairs to 2 jacks for each cable.  Wish I was there if they
ever try to run POE or go GB.

Definitely best to have someone you know assist.
