About 568A and 568B on an Ethernet connector
RJ-45
TIA/EIA-568A and -568B are two standards for connecting Category 3 and Category 5 wire to connectors. Both are appropriate for
high s peed d ata, though 568B is somew hat more comm on for installed wiring and 568A is more com mo n in jumpers. There is no
performance advan tage either way. The only real difference between the two is the order in which the pairs are us ed (orange and
green).
Hold a c able as if to plug it into a w all jack, the locking tab down (contacts facing you). The contacts are numbered 1-8 from left to
right. Here’s what you w ill see:
