Study of Different Types of Network Cables and Practically Implement The Cross-Wired Cable and Straight Through Cable Using Clamping Tool

The document describes an experiment to practice cable crimping and cabling. It includes: 1) Crimping RJ-45 connectors to cable ends using a crimping tool for standard and cross cabling configurations. 2) Crimping IO connectors by inserting colored wires into punch downs according to layout. 3) Testing the crimped cables using a cable tester to check for proper continuity. The aim is to gain experience with cable crimping, standard and cross cabling, IO connector crimping, and cable testing. Tools used include RJ-45 connectors, crimping tool, cable, cable tester, and IO connectors.

Experiment No: 1

Study of different types of Network cables and


Practically implement the cross-wired cable and straight
through cable using clamping tool
Aim:
To do the following
a) Cable Crimping
b) Standard Cabling
c) Cross Cabling
d)IO connector crimping
e) Testing the crimped cable using a cable tester

Apparatus/Tools/Equipments/Components:
RJ-45 connector,
IO Connector,
Crimping Tool,
Twisted pair Cable,
Cable Tester.

Principle:

Standard Cabling:
1. 10BaseT and 100BaseT are most common mode of LAN. You can use UTP category-5
cable for
both modes.
2. A straight cable is used to connect a computer to a hub

Cross Cabling:

A cross cable is used to connect 2 computers directly (with ONLY the UTP cable). It is also
used then you
connect 2 hubs with a normal port on both hubs

Procedure:
Cable Crimping steps:
1. Remove the outmost
2. Arrange the metal wires in parallel
3. Insert the metal wires into RJ45 connector on keeping the metal wire arrangement.
4. Set the RJ45 connector (with the cable) on the pliers, and squeeze it tightly.
5. Make the other side of the cable (we call this side B-side) in the same way.
6. After you made it, you don't need to take care of the direction of the cable.
IO connector crimping: Run the full length of Ethernet cable in place, from
endpoint to endpoint,
making sure to leave excess.

At one end, cut the wire to length leaving enough length to work, but not too much excess.
Strip off about 2 inches of the Ethernet cable sheath.
Align each of the colored wires according to the layout of the jack.
Use the punch down tool to insert each wire into the jack.
Repeat the above steps for the second RJ45 jack.

Testing the crimped cable using a cable tester:

Step 1 : Skin off the cable jacket 3.0 cm long cable stripper up to cable
Step 2: Untwist each pair and straighten each wire 190 0 1.5 cm long.
Step 3 : Cut all the wires
Step 4 : Insert the wires into the RJ45 connector right white orange left brown the pins facing up
Step 5 : Place the connector into a crimping tool, and squeeze hard so that the handle reaches its full
swing.
Step 6: Use a cable tester to test for proper continuity

Result:

Cable Crimping, Standard Cabling and Cross Cabling, IO connector crimping and
testing the crimped
cable using a cable tester are done successfully
