Steps in preparing network copper cable
1. Unroll the required length of network cable and add a little extra
wire, just in case. If a boot is to be fitted, do so before stripping away the
sleeve and ensure the boot faces the correct way.
3. Inspect the newly revealed wires for any cuts or scrapes that expose
the copper wire inside. If you have breached the protective sheath of any
wire, you will need to cut the entire segment of wires off and start over at
step one. Exposed copper wire will lead to cross-talk, poor performance or
no connectivity at all. It is important that the jacket for all network cables
remains intact.
4. Untwist the pairs so they will lay flat between your fingers. The white
piece of thread can be cut off even with the jacket and disposed (see
Warnings). For easier handling, cut the wires so that they are 3/4"(19mm)
long from the base of the jacket and even in length.
Developed by:
Revision # 01
6. Press all the wires flat and parallel between your thumb and
forefinger. Verify the colors have remained in the correct order. Cut the top
of the wires even with one another so that they are1/2"(12.5mm) long from
the base of the jacket, as the jacket needs to go into the 8P8C connector by
about 1/8", meaning that you only have a 1/2" of room for the individual
cables.
7. Keep the wires flat and in order as you push them into the RJ-45
plug with the flat surface of the plug on top. The white/orange wire
should be on the left if you're looking down at the jack. You can tell if all the
wires made it into the jack and maintain their positions by looking head-on
at the plug. You should be able to see a wire located in each hole, as seen at
the bottom right. You may have to use a little effort to push the pairs firmly
into the plug.
8. Place the wired plug into the crimping tool. Give the handle a firm
squeeze. You should hear a ratcheting noise as you continue. Once you have
completed the crimp, the handle will reset to the open position. To ensure all
pins are set, some prefer to double-crimp by repeating this step.
9. Repeat all of the above steps with the other end of the cable. The way
you wire the other end (568A or 568B) will depend on whether you're
making a straight- through, rollover, or cross-over cable.
10. Test the cable to ensure that it will function in the field. Mis-wired
and incomplete network cables could lead to headaches down the road. In
addition, with power-over-Ethernet (PoE) making its way into the
marketplace, crossed wire pairs could lead to physical damage of computers
or phone system equipment, making it even more crucial that the pairs are
in the correct order.

Network Cable Installation
Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to:
1.1 Install a Network Interface Card (NIC) per computer you want
to connect.
A NIC is a like a modem for your computer but it is used for a local
area network (LAN). You do not have to get an expensive network
card; as long as it has 100 mbps it will work fine.
To install it you must first unplug your computer and remove the
cover plate. Align the NIC over the slot that has the jack that is facing
toward the outside of the computer. Put the NIC into the slot and
press down firmly to secure. Replace the cover and unplug the
computer back in.
Your NIC should come with a disk that will instruct you how to
complete the software installation for the appropriate drivers. Follow
the instructions to finish the installation of the NIC.

1.2 Connect Network cables to the central location.
You also need 1 Network patch cable per computer. These Network
cables are blue cables that look like they have phone line plugs at the
end. They will have 4 pairs of plugs rather than 2. Make sure that the
cables that you purchase are long enough to reach from the central
location to the computers. The central location is where all the cables
will go to access the same information and will probably be where
your Internet feed is. The cables will plug into each NIC.
