    PRACTICAL -1

    Aim: To familiarize with the Basic tool (crimping tool) used in creating a LAN
    cable.

    Requirements: Category 5e cable , Modular Plugs or RJ45 Plugs , Crimping tool ,


    LAN Cable tester

    Theory:
    Category 5e cable:
    CAT5e, also known as Category 5e or Category 5 Enhanced, is a network cable
    standard ratified in 1999. CAT5e offers significantly improved performance over the old
    CAT5 standard, including up to 10 times faster speeds and a significantly greater ability
    to traverse distances without being impacted by crosstalk. CAT5e cables are typically
    24-gauge twisted pair wires, which can support Gigabit networks at segment distances
    up to 100 m.

    RJ45 Plugs:
    The correct way to refer to the common “RJ45 plug” is 8P8C RJ45 Ethernet connector.
    This long name truly nails it down. The 8P8C means eight position / eight conductor. It
    refers to a type of modular plug normally used at the end of Ethernet patch cables, and
    when attached at the end of an Ethernet cable it is called a RJ45 8P8C plug.

    Crimping tool:
    A crimping tool is a device that is used to make cold weld joints between wires and a
    connector through deforming one or both of them to hold the other. A special connector
    is used to join metals together.

    LAN Cable tester


    A LAN cable tester is used to verify that all connections are properly set up and that
    there aren't other connections that are unintended in the cable that is being tested.

    Diagram:

    1. Ethernet Connector(8P8C)
    2. T568A Pattern
    3. T568B Pattern

    Steps:

    1. Using a crimping tool, strip the cable jacket about 1.5 each down from the end.
    2. Spread the 8 color-coded wires inside.
    3. Arrange the wires in the T568B pattern. Be sure not to untwist any further down
    the cable than where the jacket begins; we want to leave as much of the cable
    twisted as possible.
    4. Again cut the wires as straight as possible, about 0.5 inches above the end of the
    jacket.
    5. Carefully insert the wires all the way into the modular connector, making sure
    that each wire passed through the appropriate guides inside the connector.
    6. Push the connector inside the crimping tool and squeeze the crimper all the way
    down
    7. Repeat steps 1-6 for the other end of the cable.

    Result: We now have an Ethernet cable that follows the T568B pattern and now can
    be connected to telephones, modems, laptops, etc. for network sharing.

    Precautions:
    1. Make sure to carefully cut the cat5e cable, one can easily damage or cut in the
    wrong manner using a crimping tool.
    2. Make sure the wires are in the proper T568B pattern before inserting them into
    the connector and crimping them, as once crimped, it’s difficult to get them out.
