Hi Tore,

The spec for 1000BT calls for all 4 pair - I thought you might have something else in use that got you around that. Off the shelf equipment needs 4 pair. I am surprised that you have no problems at 100 Mb splitting out pairs. Your luck is better than mine :-)

>PLease forgive me if I am wrong, I have many computers and a mix of 100MB and 1GB. The 100MB I can positively confirm, about the 1GB I am not quite sure, but I belive it also only 2 pair? I must confess that where I have the mix of lan and PABX on the same cable, I only use 100MB. But at my office I have some offices where I needed more connections than I had prepared for, so I have splitted one connection into two, by using 2 pairs for connection one, and 2 pairs for the other connection.

>>Really? How are you getting 1Gb speeds without all 4 pair?

>>>By the way, I use it in a 1GB lan, so speed is not an issue here.
