Step 2: remove the outer grey cable
sheath. Use the crimping tool to
cut the wire tips. Place the stripper
on the cable, hold, twist and pull
toward the cable end to strip the
cable sheath off.
Step 3: separate the exposed
coloured strands. Smooth out the
strands and untwist each pair.
Straighten out each wire and put
them in order of colour.
Make sure the cable is free of crimps
and is straightened.
Step 4: after Straightening out each
wire and putting them in colour
order, check the order again. Use the
tip of the crimping tool to cut the
wire tips. You want to cut on a sharp
slant. Otherwise, the difference in
wire length will affect the contact
with the RJ45 connector. If too much
sheath is removed, just cut the bare
wire lengths down as required.
The bare wire length should be 1.5
mm. This length will make it easier to
fit them to the RJ-45 connector.
Step 1: Use the crimping tool to cut
the desired lenght of Cat 5 cable
