Yeah the more bend in the cable the worse it is, as the wires are crossed to cancel out interference.

748319 2009-02-18 11:32:00 So, no kinks or severe right-angle bends in the cable? Strange, I never knew that a network connection could be affected that way. Just like a garden hose, eh?


yep, anything that distorts the twist of the pairs affects the loss of the cable and therefore reduces the length it will work to. That's the reason why bundles of cable are tied with wide velcro strips and not nylon cable ties.

If you bend it too sharp the electrons fall out the corner and pool on the floor....
