Just a quick question does anyone know where I can source pink patch leads from locally. I can get them from Europe but I would like to order locally if possible. All of our services are colour coded and I've run out of colours to use.

Dynamix sell pink cable by the box - they may well be able to make them up into standard lengths for you...

Cable colours are actually quite limited, gold, silver or even brown would be nice. Even striped cables would do the trick.

If you are in Wellington try Advanced Electrical, they normally have a selection but normally I see Pink as crossover cables.

As an alternative, get some heatshrink tubing, and shrink some different coloured sections onto the cable ends.

Also my understanding is that crossover cables will work just As well as straight through wired cables. Assuming that you intend to use them for gigabit Ethernet.
