I hope you're only using grease-filled outdoors. The sheath on most ordinary indoor cables is hygroscopic.

These days the good outdoor CAT5e has a white paper ribbon inside that swells up in the presence of moisture. Much nicer to work with than grease-filled cable. _______________________________________________ NZNOG mailing list NZNOG(a)list.waikato.ac.nz http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog
