Talk:25-pair color code

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It is requested that a photograph or photographs of a 25-pair cable showing all 25 pairs of wires be included in this article to improve its quality.

Is this specific to the US and/or the UK? I've just finished a cabling registration in Australia that has unique colours up to 100 pairs - using some striped colours. To be specific:

  1. Blue - White
  2. Orange - White
  3. Green - White
  4. Brown - White
  5. Slate - White
  6. Blue/White - White
  7. Blue/Orange - White
  8. Blue/Green - White
  9. Blue/Brown - White
  10. Blue/Slate - White
  11. Orange/White - White
  12. Orange/Green - White
  13. Orange/Brown - White
  14. Orange/Slate - White
  15. Green/White - White
  16. Green/Brown - White
  17. Green/Slate - White
  18. Brown/White - White
  19. Brown/Slate - White
  20. Slate/White - White

Then repeats..

  • 21-40. Paired with Yellow
  • 41-60. Paired with Black
  • 61-80. Paired with Violet
  • 81-100. Paired with Red

I presume it is a per country thing - if not, It'd be great if someone could do up an image like the 25-pair one, except for Australian 100-pair. (might be easier just to do the first 20) :)
