I agree with the above comments. I was a Cardas dealer for many years and they are almost impossible to re-terminate yourself. Cardas uses a pretty elaborate method to put connectors on their cables. I would send them to Cardas and let them do it.
Cardas is probably the only ones who know for sure what color is what. I wouldn't think it would make a huge difference as along as you use the same colors on each end, of course. If they are all the same guage, does it matter?
I've never cut the end off of a Cardas cable, so I'm not sure of the exact color scheme. It might be proprietry, but I'd give Cardas a call and ask.
