had something weird last night:
I have 3 cables running from my "server room" up through the attic, to the outside wall under the roof, down the outside wall hidden inside a wall space, back inside into the first floor (erdgeschoss).
Everything worked fine until 4:21am and 4:28am last night when first one then the other cable and the connected devices went dark (= expired)
2 of the 3 cables stopped working. With a cable tester: one had 2 out of 8 cables bad the other 6 out of 8
Checked in the attic and outside: no visible "animal hunger" destruction = the cables all look fine, no destruction
I would understand one wire of the 8 in a cable going bad .. but that many within 6 minutes ..
And no thunderstorms , no loss of power .. very quiet night.
any ideas?

I have another cable run, but that will make all the switches sequential (= 5 switches between TV and router ).. kind of works right now but ...
