I would start with the comp.dcom.cabling FAQ at: http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/LANs/cabling-faq/faq.html or ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/comp.dcom.cabling/ Data_Communications_Cabling_FAQ It hasn't been updated in some time, I think that those involved have been overwloaded with other work... Then follow up with the following URLs: http://wwwhost.ots.utexas.edu/ethernet/ http://www.industry.net/tia http://www.eia.org/ http://www.andrewboon.com.au/html/BOONSCS1.html http://web.syr.edu/~jmwobus/lans/ The actual wiring standards/specifications are not available on the net as far as I know (ANSI, IEEE, EIA, etc. all derive some chunk of their support income from document sales...) Let me know if you need any more info. I have a ton of stuff (papers, elec. files, URLs, etc.) crammed away here. Some of it is actually useful!
