How the actual fuck did this get through QA and production?

The protective boot is optional on the RJ45 CAT5/6 specification. I suspect they likely didn't test with all the different RJ45 variants dongles.

If the client has enough money for Cisco hardware they can definitely afford the boogie RJ45 with Booties.

Bougie, unless they're just funky as fuck.

i read it exactly as it was written and now I'm imagining RJ45s in an earth wind and fire music video

QA budget is real low. They can only afford the ones that are bare copper stuffed into a RJ45.

If they're lucky a DIY job with no exposed pairs outside the RJ45
