It's time again for our periodic recounting of "the best of the worst" of the latest cabling scenes glimpsed within the photo subgroups for chronicling conditions of "cablefail" and "cablegore" at social media's Reddit, in the site's eponymous communities particularly geared toward working ICT and IT professionals in the field.
Our top 10 goriest cable fails come in unranked order, wending through campus, commercial, and residential deployments of OSP fiber and cable broadband systems, as well as data center and server room connectivity of all varieties, dipping a toe into broadcast and Pro AV over IP networking, and even traveling inside the results of the tester that found the RJ45 Ethernet cable that killed a POE switch.
