You are not alone in the "forgot to put the cover on first before crimping" camp. Have a seat by the fire and crack a beer.

I almost always forget the boot before crimping as well. Probably more often than forgetting heatshrink till it's too late.

Not sure, so I apologise if I am incorrect, but it looked in the video like you may have had the color code backwards. TIA-568A or B is the standard scheme (most people do B). Pin 1 is on the left with the tab facing down: <a href="https://www.incentre.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/ethcable568b.gif" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.incentre.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/ethcable568b.gif</a> It very well could have been a trick of the lighting though

I am an old-timer so I made a cross-over cable to connect a computer to computer - I don't think that's necessary any more, because modern devices seem to select their pairs automatically

Good riddance stupid ethernet cover thing. I hate those ones with the half circle tab protection. I always go out of my way to buy cables/connectors with a different design tab protection.

Need to train those pups to pull your cable!

Indeed! I wonder if those interferences make a difference in HiFi audio tho, because there usually *relatively* low resistances involved

Looks like our school library "crawlspace" - 55 years of lovely dust and abandon rodent condos!
