geektechnique.org — Mark got invited to a fancy party and couldn't find his cufflinks, so he hacked a pair out of some Ethernet connectors and bits of wire; and thus the crimp-your-own cufflink was born. He's written up his mod in detail for others who want to follow suit.

Ethernet is not a cable! See: <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.3">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.3</a>

ERT! Wrong. He made cufflinks out of RJ-45 connectors, NOT ethernet connectors. Ethernet is a software architecture, NOT a physical device.

I hate it when people call physical objects by the protocol that *might* run on them.
