Cable Crimpin Report

1. The document describes how to crimp an RJ45 plug onto an Ethernet cable. It lists the necessary materials and provides step-by-step instructions for stripping the cable, arranging the wires, crimping the plug, and testing the connection. 2. Diagrams show the T568A and T568B wiring standards for straight-through and crossover Ethernet cables, indicating the color of each wire and the signal it carries. 3. The diagrams help illustrate the difference between straight-through and crossover cable configurations to ensure the correct wiring arrangement is used for a given connection.

MATERIALS AND SETUP

I. Ethernet cable : Ethernet cable category 5


II. Wire cutters : Wire cutters to cut and strip the Ethernet cable
III. RJ45 Plugs: Is an 8-position modular connector that looks like a large phone plug
IV. RJ45 Crimpers
V. Wire strippers
VI. Cable tester

STEPS
1. Strip off about 2 inches of the Ethernet cable sheath
2. 2. Untwist the pairs – do not untwist them beyond what you have exposed, the more
Untwisted cable you have the worse the problems you can run into.
3. Align the colored wires according to the wiring arrangement u have picked up
4. Trim all the wires to the same length, about ½” to ¾” left exposed from the sheath
5. Insert the wires into RJ45 plug – make sure each wire is fully inserted to the front of
the
RJ45 plug and in the correct order. The sheath of the Ethernet cable should extend
into the RJ45 plug about ½” and will be held in the place by the crimp.
6. Crimp the RJ45 plug with the crimper tool.
7. Verify the wires ended up the right order and that the wires extend to the front of the
RJ45 plug and make good contact with the metal contacts in the RJ45 plug.
8. Cut the Ethernet cable to length – make sure it is more than long enough for your
needs.
9. Repeat the above steps for the second RJ45 plug

The diagram above shows the color scheme, signal and what type of signal transmitted,
through the wires and the base at which it attends. So as you can this a straight through
Ethernet cable code number T568A, plus the purpose of this diagram is to clear emulate the
different type of wires arrangement between Straight through and crossover cables.
So in straight through cable, the white green and green transmit the positive and the
negative signal, while the white orange transmits the positive signal and the orange transmit
the negative signal. In this type of cable the blue, white blue, white brown, brown are left
used.
