Cable Combing: Pride Or Problem?

Send a text

We dig into the cable combing debate with Henry Frank, separating myth from practice and explaining how modern Cat 6A design and standards testing changed the rules. Along the way, we talk PoE heating, short channels, culture clashes, and why neat work still wins trust.

• what cable combing actually is and why it matters
• where old randomization advice came from
• alien crosstalk explained clearly for installers
• manufacturer six-around-one worst-case testing
• PoE heat, LP ratings, and real-world bundle risk
• short channels and four-connector topologies
• when to comb for serviceability and pride
• why joining standards groups grows your career
