PRACTICAL
Name:-

Enroll No:-

CLASS:-
CO4IA

Experiment No:-2
Create desired standard network cable
including cross cable and test by using
cable Tester.

THEORY:- Networking cables are used to connect one


network device to
other network devices or to connect two or more
computers to share
hardware and software resources. For networking, the
cables are used with
one of those flat connectors (RJ – 45) very similar to the
connectors used for
telephone connections.

Required Resources
One length of cable, either Category 5 or 5e. Cable
length should be 0.6
to 0.9m (2 to 3 ft.)
2 RJ-45 connectors
RJ-45 crimping tool
Wire cutter
Wire stripper
Ethernet cable tester (optional)
2 PCs (Windows 7 or 8)

Steps
1
Strip your cable. Use your cable strippers at about 1-2
inches from the end of the cable to remove the outer
jacket.

2
Untwist the twisted pair wires all the way back to the
jacket. This can be done just like a regular twist-tie on a
loaf of bread, but with four of them of different colors.
3
Align the untwisted wires in the order necessary for your
needs. For this scenario, you'll be making a straight-
through cable, which has both ends of the cable with the
same alignment of wires, so it's easy enough to do. Since
this is your first cable, we'll consult the cheat sheet to
know what order we're aligning in!
4
Cut the extra wire. Once you've untwisted the wires, you'll have
a superfluous amount of copper wiring left; we don't need this
much, but it's good to have it in the previous step to help in
aligning the colors properly. Use the wire-cutting scissors to cut
these off.
5
Push the remaining wires into the RJ45 head. Be careful not to
bend the wires while pushing them in or you run the risk of
creating a bad cable. You also don't want too little or too much
wire left in the head; there's no definite length necessary, but
it's pretty obvious to tell if there's too much cable or not
enough. A short length of the jacket should be up the RJ45
head; use this knowledge as a reference.
6
Double-check that the wires are all the way up into the gold pins of the
head and made it up in the proper order. (Consult your cheat sheet if
needed!)
7
Push the head into the open space of the crimping tool and squeeze it
closed, hard. If you don't crimp the cable all the way, the head may
come off.
8
Open the crimping tool and remove your newly-crimped Ethernet
connector.
9
Repeat the crimping process on the other side of the cable if you're
making a completely new cable. If you're repairing one end, this won't
apply to you, so move on.
10
Plug one end of the cable into the tan, two-port end of the cable tester,
and the other end into the other part of the tester with the graphic
display window. Turn it on and listen for the beep. If it beeps once, you
successfully made an Ethernet cable; if it beeps twice, some part of the
cable is messed up and needs repairing. Depending on the error, the
cable may or may not still be usable
11
Plug your Ethernet cable in. Now that you've made an Ethernet
cable all by yourself, you can connect all kinds of devices
together! Of course, for the cable you just made, make sure
they're different devices! You can connect to Xbox Live now, to
Playstation Network, to your wireless router, and many more
devices you don't even know about! Or, if you're known as the
life of the party, you can show off to your friends and never
have to worry about being invited to another party again... !
