An Ethernet cable is used to connect devices together on a computer network. It contains 4 twisted pairs of wires in different colors - orange, green, blue, brown - which are arranged according to standards. The document outlines how to physically wire an Ethernet cable by stripping it, aligning the colored wires in the proper order, and crimping RJ-45 connectors to the ends for either a straight-through or crossover cable configuration.

• The name, Ethernet Cable, always refers to the
following category:
• Category 5
• Category 5e
• Category 6
• Or more than those categories

•
• You can use the order of rainbow colors to
memorize the order of this wiring.

10. • We can use the concept to justify the order of the wiring
colors of straight through and crossover.

11. • Prepare the materials and tools.
• Cable & RJ-45 (registered jack ) plugs
• Scissors
• Crimping tool

12. •  Strip off suitable length of the cable sheath.
•  About 2-2.5 cm
•  You can mark the position first

13. Align the colored wires according to the
specific order.(Later we will talk about.)

14. •  Straight Through
•  All order of the wirings is the same as the other side

16. • Crossover
• We need to change the order of the transmission and
• receiving wirings.

18. • Trim all the wires to the same length.

19. •  Insert the wires into the RJ45 plug.

20. •  Crimp the RJ45 plug with the crimping tool
