Too many pictures One amature picture of cable ends is enough Users find it a lot more useful to have a detailed pinout for their reference Refresh Update I have made some edits that are hopefully viewed as an improvement on the original I added references to both the T568 A and T568 B standards to the pinout tables I copied and modified the original table showing it as a four pair crossover since the newer network types need all four pairs crossed I added explanatory comments about the T568 A B wiring formats since in my experience this has been a source of confusion They really are interchangeable you just need to use the same format at each end I also inserted comments between the two pinout tables explaning that there may be situations where the older style may be preferable and that some equipment can be fussy about which pairs are crossed and which are not I broke out the Cable Pinouts and Other Technologies into separate sections to make things clearer Comments Thanks to whomever added the pictures and the original table They really help liven up the page and make the information much more easily grasped Regarding the comment about Wikipedia not being a user manual but merely a source of information Where do you we draw the line I came to Wikipedia as a source of information and in this case the how to kind of information is often what the visitor wants In my own case I came here looking for information about how to make the cable and found the tabular form for the pinout now pinouts most instructive Constructive criticism is welcomed Flame mail to dev null
