How to make a network cable?

Question:

How to make a network cable.

Reasoning:

Users who may be wiring their house or setting up their own network may want to create their own network cables to save money.

Answer:

To create your own network cables you will first need the equipment we have listed below.

1. Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat7 cable - Please find here. Cat5 cabling is the most commonly used cable used today for networks
2. RJ-45 connectors - These connectors can be found here and usually come in bulk packages. It's always a good idea to get more than you expect you will need.
3. Crimping tool - Please find here. To create a network cable you will need a crimper that is capable of crimping a RJ-45 cable (not just a RJ-11 cable, which looks similar to a RJ-45). We have 3-in-1 crimping tool crimps both RJ45 and RJ11 connector cable.
4. Wire stripper / Knife - If you plan on making several network cables you should also consider getting a wire stripper cable of stripping Cat5, Cat6, or your cable of choice. If you do not plan on creating many network cables, one knife will suffice. For simplicity and to prevent potential issues, we recommend a wire stripper. ( For users' convenient, our 3-in-1 crimping tool comes with a wire stripper)

Once you have the necessary equipment needed to create your own network cables you need to determine the type of network cable you wish to create. There are two major types of network cables: a straight through cable and a crossover cable. Below are some examples of what cable is used for each of

the examples.

Straight through cable

1. Computer to hub, switch, or router
Crossover cable

1. Computer to Computer
2. Network device to network device. For example: router to router.

Once you have determined the type of network cable you will be creating strip the cable, we recommend stripping at least a half of an inch off of the cable to expose the inner wires.

The type of network cables being created in this document is the most common CAT5 twisted-pair cables, because each cable consists of four twisted wires, each color coded one a solid color and the other a stripped color. As seen below most network cables consist of a green, blue, orange, and brown pair of cables.

There are two types of cable standards T568A and T568B, each twisted-pair must be broken apart to create the layout as shown above. If you wish to create a straight through cable both ends of the cable should be identical and should match the T568A

If you wish to create a crossover cable one end of the cable should match T568A and the other should match T568B.

Once you have separated the ends of the cable to match one of the above examples, place the cables into the RJ-45 connector and then use the crimping tool to attach the connector. Do these steps for each side of the cable.

Once both ends of the cable have been completed connect the cable to make sure it is working.
