Re: CAT5 568A v. 568B..Hmmm..odd problem?



You can use A or B and still carry phone traffic.  Line 1 goes on the
center pair (pins 4&5; Bl/Wh-Wh/Bl) which are the same in both 568A&B.
If you have a line 2, that would go on pins 3&6 which is normally used
by the ethernet connection. So, if you want to run ethernet and 1 phone
line you can do so. If you want a second phone line you'd have to put it
on pins 7&8 and modify your phone plugs.
