What is meant by kinking the cable. I saw at https://superuser.com/a/367001/252080 the first thing shared was not to kink the cable. Can somebody explain what is kinking and why should not one do it. If somebody has any images to go with it, much better as well.
The second bit about "avoid tight or sharp bends; for UTP the bend radius should be at least 1"." . Can somebody explain to me what is this bend radius as well.
Thank you for your patience.
Update :- I did get some part of the answer just after I wrote. Bend radius is this :-

Kinking also seems to be somehow damaging the cable but how does that damage happens is not shared/explained.
Also note that it is not possible to remove a kink from a cable by straightening it. – Dan D. – 2014-03-16T10:41:15.977
