I've just purchased the Merlin II system. I ran all the Cat-5 cables. Now I am at the step to put the termination plugs onto the cables. What wiring patern should I be using? Does it matter? Should it be T568A or T568B? Or should it be any other patern like Blue, BlueWhite, Orange, Green, Green/White, etc. ???

You can use 568A or 568B as long as both ends are the same.Lucent always used 568B though. If you are just crimping modular plugs on, the standard is:
W/O
O/W
W/G
B/W
W/B
G/W
W/B
B/W
