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.

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.

I should know better than to second guess you :) Yes, many devices now have Auto MDI-X which is responsible for automatically crossing the pairs on one side, but I too prefer to do it manually when appropriate. Thank you for all that you do!

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

You could send your robot in to clean up your crawl space!

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