Right. And furthermore, even "testing" with 100 Mbps Ethernet
equipment is not the right thing to do.

5 into 3? Easy. Treat it like CAT3. ;)
Bend it under 1" radius. Pull it with more than 25# force (25? Not sure).
Run it more than 100meters. Leave it in your trunk while it's 90 degr
Hi Jason,
I'm not 100% sure, but the connection pin-to-pin is the same, I
think, just it's a straight connection, not done in a proper way so to
ensure the Cat5 quality of signal...
so, it's not a test of connection, more a test of quality...
I cannot see why to downgrade the quality from C
