I hadn't realised it was so easy to apply for the police these days
Given you only need 2 GCSE's I suspect they're trying to make it as easy as possible for the hard of thinking...

First one I could find. Too tired to spend ages arguing with some wannabe-pedant on the internet... hehe

It's a length of cable that is 50p/m or found in a skip that he has crimped some connectors and ferrite blocks on to.

Also, likely to be pretty much the same speed wise as the cheap flat cable you've already got.

Like gold plated connectors, shame about the high O content in the wires or the aluminium connector your shoving it in to

The pedant was correct though.

It is well known among networking experts that the 'flat' RJ11 cables are faster transferring data than 'round' RJ45 cables.

This is because the round cables only allow data bits one after another in procession, and flat cables allow them side by side, up to 4 at once, so much quicker.

Additionally, cables with added thorium offer less resistance so more speed. I can supply custom made ones at only 11.95 a foot plus P&P.

Round cables are better for transmitting the zeroes too. The ones have no issue in flat cable but sometimes the zeros get stuck depending on which way they go in.

You just need a zero-dimensional de-oscillating polarising pre-filter to get them to all line up in the correct orientation. I can sell you one for a very modest investment.

You can hear the difference, can't you?

I mean, anyone who is really into music can hear the difference. You can tell it's better, can't you..?

Are they like those magnet fitted to fuel systems so all the fuel molecules are lined up and burn better?

The thorium ovalises the zeroes, which mitigates the tendency to stick. We can thank the cold war for that discovery.

The ZDDOF just improves adds a bit more easing. Is yous a GL or GXL, I've already got a GL, is the upgrade worthwhile?

Cables schmables pah.

That's old hat and such dated tech. I can sell you air which contains all the data you need within it. No cables required.

Again, just a modest investment required ........

Schhhhh ..... don't tell everyone! It can be our secret. I'll let you in for a 10% cut tongue out
