Not to be confrontational but if you know the answer why wouldn't you just quote me and post the answer instead of telling me to search the thread? lol?

He probably cannot speak from direct experience on the pairing or remember exactly what was said, but he knows someone has spoken on the pairing and that it can be found with some searching.

And at other times, people only have a quick moment to respond. Or they are on their phone, sometimes making it more difficult to write a longer response or go find the information.
Personally, I don't understand the need to complain. It's great for me when someone can just point me in the right direction where to find it for myself

Do a search its all over the place.....

Well it looks like I might have took his suggestion the wrong way lol
Understandable. How could you know that it was a popular question. It's not the title of the thread, after all. I think the guy who responded to you probably doesn't remember the answer but at a guess: almost certainly it can be handled with ease.

I've just double-checked the product pdf and it says 5,000. And yes I did write 2000 (supposedly from the same document) so I'm not sure what went wrong there.
So, just to clarify: it has a 5,000 inserts lifespan, not 2,000.
Here's the pdf:
http://www.mouser.com/ds/2/222/STX-3120-5B-284C-184284.pdf
Also, the way that kind of rating works if I am not mistaken, is that such rating means that xx (usually very high) percentage of all tested are guaranteed to last [in this case] 5000 mating cycles without any issue.
So the odds of it being as such that on the 5001th time of plugging it in it all of a sudden totally stops working, are pretty much zero. If there are to be any assumptions at all, a relatively safe one is probably that somewhere between 5000 and 7000 uses, there's a good chance there will be some technical indication of the jacking having been exposed to usage.

I read the 2,000 figure in an early post in this thread by lorriman; I don't know him personally, but I find his posts informative and reliable.

Thanks. I won't repeat the 2,000 insertion figure again.

A random note, what are the "rails"? It's mentioned in the c421 description as well as being controlled with Arduino software for the upcoming c5.
