25 25  While either T568A or T568B termination pin-out are acceptable as long as they are used consistently, it is **recommended to use the T568B pin-out for all terminations.** By keeping to one standard, it is easier to stay consistent and prevent errors where the two sides of a single cable are not terminated to the same standard.

29 29  When making RJ-45 terminations, take care that the wires are in the correct order and pushed all the way to the end of the connector. A crimping tool with sharp blades that have not been dulled with use also helps in making good terminations.

33 -Issues with Ethernet cabling typically will not be noticed until a lighting technician is on-site to commission the Crestron system. While commonly available cable testers such as the Klein Scout can help in determining basic faults such as crossed, shorted, or broken wires, the only way to definitively rule out Ethernet cable issues is to use a Cable Qualification Tester or Cable Certification Tester.
