What's Your #1 RJ45 Installation Tip for Reliable Field Connections?

I've been documenting best practices for RJ45 connector installation and maintenance. A few things that come up repeatedly:

  • Keep pair twists tight to the termination point
  • Always engage strain relief
  • Inspect IP67 seals before tightening

What's your top tip for making RJ45 connections that last — especially in harsh environments?
