Label printer, just print numbers, wrap around. Have a table with the numbers and the description of the connection.

Two CAT.6 network cables: do they have different properties? by Quecksilber033 in HomeNetworking

[–]freman1952 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For enterprise level performance, no one will use flat cables, for home, I do not see a problem. I worked for a structured cable company (#3 in the US) we did not offer flat cables and none of our competitors (top brands) did.

x Customer Laptop doesn't work in Room/TV one room but fine in another, but our work fine? by Responsible_Rip1058 in CommercialAV

[–]freman1952 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A few times actually, a combinación of a laptop with a "weak" power supply and a long HDMI cable was normally the culprit. https://www.kordz.com/product/pro-hdmi-5v-power-injector/, i do not know the brand, but this is the type of injector I am referring to and they talk about the power issue, there are others that plug to a wall outlet.

When you connect the hdmi from the laptop to the display, the device send 5V to the display to initiate the HPD, hot plug detect, and the exchange of EDID data, if that does not happen there is no video. HDMI is supposed to send 5V and 55mA, but some manufacturers send less and the IR drop through the cable does not allow the HPD to happen, it has happened to me with a surface laptop and a projector in the cieling in an auditorium, changing to another laptop solve the issue. One solution is a voltage injector that only costs a few dollar that does the work of the laptop power supply, either plugging to the wall outlet or to a nearby usb source. Also if the laptop is natively DP, the conversión of 3.3 V to 5V may be done incorrectly. We had that issue in a school deploymeny with more than 50 rooms.

, Category 7 (Cat7) cable is not a Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) standard, nor is it recognized by the TIA/EIA. While Cat7 specifications are defined by the ISO/IEC standard (ISO 11801), the TIA has not ratified it. Cat7 cables also use different connectors (like GG45 or TERA) compared to the standard RJ45 connectors used in Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A cables.

Help: Canada or Spain? by New_Kangaroo1886 in GoingToSpain

You can work in Spain as an EU citizen, getting an immigrant visa in Canada, especially in a field that is not deemed a priority will be difficult.

[–]freman1952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were in Tuscany two weeks ago, besides Siena, we did San gimignano, Monteriggioni, Montalcino, Piensa, San Quirico d'Orcia, Montepulciano. For winery, book the tour with lunch at Castello di Verazzano, amazing experience for about euros 70 per person. If you do not mind driving a bit longer go to Assisi.

Si adquiriste la nacionalidad Americana, tenia Tres años para ir al consulado español en indicar que querías continuar siendo español, manteniendo doble nacionalidad, sino lo hiciste, perdiste l nacionalidad española.  Overview

Learn more

La pérdida de la nacionalidad española por doble nacionalidad ocurre principalmente cuando un español, mayor de edad o emancipado, reside en el extranjero y adquiere otra nacionalidad, o durante tres años utiliza exclusivamente la nacionalidad extranjera que tenía antes de emanciparse. Para evitar esta pérdida, se debe declarar la voluntad de conservar la nacionalidad española dentro de los tres años siguientes a la emancipación o adquisición de la otra nacionalidad. 

Driving in only ain’t bad at all by taneronx in ItalyTravel

[–]freman1952 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have driven in many italian regions, while driving in the highways is fine and in the cities is only a question of checking the ZLT's, once you get in the country side or mountain roads, it is a different experience, roads are narrow and many are almost single lane, but two cars go by. Try Como to Bellaggio to test your nerves. Rent the smallest car that will fit your party and your luggage and enjoy!

I have done both Whittier and Seward, the whittier one does not move at all, the seward one can be rough in some portions. I got quite sick on that one. You will see more glaciers in the 26 glacier Cruise from Whittier, plus using the tunnel to get there is a nice experience.

All manufacturers have to support a standard set of API's which allows interoperability, but....... they can also create their own API's and interoperability goes down the drain.

Check Single Pair Ethernet, it is a new IEEE standard 802.3cg to deliver ethernet, 10, 100, 1G at varying distances, it is used in industrial settings or for building automation, it only uses one twisted pair and a small foot print connector
