hi all,

thanks for all your suggestions and info; much appreciated. i have
found the L-com plugs that were mentioned and it looks like one of the
varieties might just do the trick.

as far as pre-made patch cables go...that is what we buy 95% of the
time, but in certain situations we need the cable to be exactly the
right length usually due to space considerations. moreover, sometimes
we need 50'+ cables, and those are typically not so cheap.

anyway, thanks again.

take care,
alex
