How to crimp wire

If you need to establish a local connection between computers, use one of the most common communication cables – twisted pair. When you do not have the cable, and the case urgent, and besides, his purchase will take considerable time – try to make this cable at home. This procedure, the technical process is simple. But will require additional knowledge in this matter.

You will need

• Tool kit for crimping cable

Instruction

1. To compress twisted pair cable (to connect twisted pair cable with a plug), you'll need:
   
   - a device for Stripping (stripper);
   
   - pliers for crimping (like, ploskogorie);
   
   - standard cable tester;
   
   - wire twisted pair;
   
   - plug standard RJ-45.
   
2. A device for Stripping incise the outer shell of the cable "twisted pair". Incision should be at a distance of 3 cm from the edge.
   
3. Incised insulation must be removed. Rasplatita pairs and distribute them according to the colors that are listed on one of the schemas attached drawing.
   
4. Then align the guides. Tightly squeeze conductors. Using a knife, remove the excess part of the conductors, leaving the unwound about 1 cm.
   
5. After alignment of the conductors attach the plug to them in the following way: the sections of the conductors should reach the end of the furrows. The cable jacket must bring the locking latch, bring the cord all the way.
   
6. Again, check the order of laying of conductors by colors. After checking, place the plug into the crimping tool until it stops. Then squeeze both handles of the crimp tool. You need to compress the fork until it locks into place (you will hear a distinctive sound). The most important is the control blade, which is pressed against the knives. Ensure that they are not shifted past the contacts, because this will lead to the complete misalignment of the plug.
   
7. Unplug the crimped cable and visually look at the quality of the connection: if everything is in order, it is possible to start manufacturing of the patch cord.
   
8. Patch cord – a cable "twisted pair", which swage wire is made with two sides. For its production need to do the same thing you did earlier, but at the other end of the cable "twisted pair".
