What type of Cat5e cable do you use on the connector, as this makes a huge difference. Cisco’s website recoments using a rollover cable for the above pinout. You should mention that a standard “straight-through” cable does not have the correct pinout and you must make a rollover cable. I am going to figure out what the pinout is for a straight-through and I will repost.
