Hi. This is for a Top Secret project that Sarah and I are working on. What I need from you, gentle IT readers, is your unneeded Cat 5 cable.
Yes. I need Cat 5 cable[1. I will also take broken fiber cable. SC, ST, LC connectors... I don't care. So long as the connector is still on, it is useful to me].
It can be broken cable [2. The cable must have the connector at least at ONE end]. If it doesn't work, that is fine as that I will not be using it to network anything. I need it as a material. I don't care what color it is. The only thing I care about is how CLEAN it is. Meaning?
Well it can't be sticky or gross with slime, garbage, smooshed roach bits... etc. Dusty, is fine.
I need quite a bit of it.
If ever there was a time that you wanted to get rid of some old cat 5 cable lying around, now is the time. I'm sorry... I can't pay for shipping. =( But I assure you, donating the cable to me will be for a great cause that everyone will get to see the fruits of.
If you are interested in donating cable to me please comment or send me an email and I will give you a mailing address to ship this cable to. I need it sooner than later. I need at least TWO large boxes of cables. More is better. Any size will do. Thanks!
(and yes, I work in IT myself but I'm a consultant so I never get to take bits of cable away from project with me as that hey belong to the client)
Thanks again! =D
