I am not a fan. Especially in an environment where wind could move wires or there is vibration etc. And repeated punchdown wears out whatever the punchdown is attached to.

I saw a radio at WISPAPALOOZA that had you punch down the wires onto the radio's circuit board. Seems like it would cut down on any issues of the RJ45 coming undone. What pitfalls would there be? ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com
