Semi Detailed Lesson Plan
Semi Detailed Lesson Plan
I. Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
1. Enumerate the tools and materials used in making LAN Cables;
2. Identify the color coding of copper wires used in straight through and crossover
LAN cables;
3. Perform a straight through and crossover LAN Cabling;
4. Value the importance of LAN Cables in Networking.
B. Presentation:
1. Motivation
Show pictures of trending computer games that uses LAN Connection, ask
someone inside the class if they want to know how it works. Use picture equation
to reveal the lesson for the day.
2. Raised Up Question
Ask 3 students on what they want to know or to learn about the topic that will be
answered after the discussion.
3. Definition of Terms
Straight Through Cable – used in Local Area Network (LAN) to connect PC to a
network hub or router.
Crossover Cable – used in Local Area Network (LAN) to connect network devices
directly, without the need for a router in the middle.
RJ45 – an eight-wire connector used to connect computer to category 5
unshielded twisted pair cables in a network.
UTP - Means Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) the most common cable used in
computer networking.
Wire Stripper - used to remove the outer jacket of the wire.
Crimping Tool - used to crimp UTP Cables to RJ45 connector.
Cable Tester – assists in the installation and control of networks.
5. Application
Direction: Students will create both Straight-Through and Crossover LAN
Cables by following the steps for 20 minutes.
6. Generalization
LAN Cabling is the process of creating LAN Cable which is used in
interconnecting computer. There are two types of LAN Cable the straight-
through and crossover. The straight-through mainly used in connecting
many computers with the use of HUB or routers. While the crossover cable
use in connecting devices directly without using HUB or routers. There are
several tools and materials used in LAN Cabling like UTP Cable, wire
stripper, crimping tool, RJ45 and cable tester.
7. Evaluation
Proper Crimping – 30%
Functionality – 70%
Total of 100%
IV. Assignment
1. What are the Structured Cabling Systems?
2. 2. Identify and describe the elements that are recommended for structured cabling networks.
