  The cat 5e's were punched by my networking electrician and checked
with a (fairly expensive) network tester. The cat 6's were purchased
(550 Mhz) premade cables ... they all have 4 pairs ..

   I've havent seen 2 pairs of wires .. mmm at least since pre cat 3
days ... :-)


  Agreed dodgy cables can be an issue ... for good measure I had flipped
a few cables ... same result.

 Thanks
