What do You mean by "straight through"? Label on the cable itself says
it is CAT.5E, I cut that piece off the roll and attached rj-45
connector on one end. I paid extra attention to line the wires by
colors as per standard (the same as mentioned in 7i44 manual).
Yesterday I checked all the wire leads between rj-45 connector and my
converter with multimeter - all the leads are connected properly. I
tested it by putting one tester pin on rj-45 pins and then attached
the other pin to all the pins (one at a time) on converter to check,
if there are any short circuits or misconnections. It was all right.
