NETWORK CABLE TERMINATION METHOD

RJ45 is a well-known connector widely used for Ethernet and data connections. Therefore, they are also referred to as Ethernet connectors. The process of connecting RJ45 network cables typically requires selecting the appropriate wiring method based on the type of connection. Below are the detailed steps for connecting RJ45 straight-through (patch) cables and RJ45 crossover cables:

RJ45 Straight-through (Patch) Cable Connection Method

  • Gather RJ45 connectors and suitable network cables (such as Cat6 or Cat5e).
    Utilize a wire stripper to strip away a small portion of the cable's outer jacket, revealing the inner 8 twisted pairs of wires.
  • Arrange the 8 twisted pairs of wires into 4 pairs according to the T568A or T568B standard. The commonly used T568B standard follows this sequence: white-orange, orange, white-green, blue, white-blue, green, white-brown, brown.
  • Trim the twisted pairs of wires to an appropriate length, approximately matching the length of the connector.
  • Insert the trimmed twisted pairs of wires into the RJ45 connector, ensuring each pair is inserted into the corresponding slot and arranged in the correct order.
  • Use a crimping tool to firmly crimp the RJ45 connector, ensuring good metal contact between the connector and wires.
  • Use a tester to check the connection of the network cable, ensuring each pair can transmit signals properly.

RJ45 Crossover Cable Connection Method

RJ45 crossover cables are used to directly connect two computers or network devices without the need for intermediary devices (such as switches or routers). The connection method is slightly different because the sequence of the wire pairs needs to be swapped.
In addition to the above steps 1 to 4 of preparation and wire arrangement, the following extra steps are needed when connecting RJ45 crossover cables:
1. Wire Pair Swap:
At one end of the connector, swap the positions of wires 1 and 3, and wires 2 and 6.
Similarly, at the other end of the connector, swap the positions of wires 1 and 3, and wires 2 and 6.
2. Continue with Wire Trimming, Insertion, Crimping, and Testing.

CLASSIFIED BY GRADE

We provide an array of network cables customized to suit your connectivity requirements. This includes CAT5e, CAT6, CAT6a, CAT7, and CAT8.1 network cables, each designed with unique advantages to enrich your networking experience.

CAT5e network cable

CAT5e network cable offer superior performance to CAT5, particularly in terms of crosstalk and interference resistance,CAT5e cables provide the same maximum speed as CAT5, but due to their enhanced design and structure, they offer better reliability and performance.

CAT6 network cable

CAT6 cables, including CAT6 cable rolls, are designed to support high-speed data transmission, with a maximum transmission rate of 10 Gbps. In comparison to CAT5e cables, they provide improved performance and resistance to interference,CAT6 cables support higher transmission rates.

CAT6a network cable

CAT6a represents an upgraded iteration of CAT6, enabling superior transmission speeds and extended transmission ranges. It is typically used in environments requiring ultra-high-speed data transmission and interference resistance, such as enterprise networks and data centers.

CAT7 network cable

CAT7 cables are engineered to accommodate elevated frequencies and transmission rates, commonly deployed in settings demanding ultra-fast data transfer and resilience to interference, like data centers and high-performance computing environments.

CAT8.1 network cable

CAT8.1 is the latest standard, supporting higher transmission rates and a wider frequency range. CAT8.1 provides higher bandwidth and lower latency, making it suitable for scenarios with extremely high network performance requirements.

CATEGORIZED BY TYPE (SHIELDING)

Our network cables are categorized by shielding type, including UTP,FTP,STP,SF/UTP,U/FTP,F/FTP,S/FTP and SF/FTP, each with unique advantages. Whether you require standard networking applications or have strict requirements for interference and crosstalk, we provide tailored solutions.

UTP

Unshielded Twisted Pair:
Also known as U/UTP, UTP network cable consists of twisted pairs without shielding. Balanced transmission lines are created through symmetric twisting of wires, aiding in reducing electrical noise and EMI. Different twisting rates per pair can reduce crosstalk.

FTP

Foiled Twisted Pair:
Often referred to as F/UTP, FTP network cables are characterized by an overall foil shield enveloping unshielded twisted pairs. By correctly connecting the shield, unwanted noise is redirected to the ground, providing additional EMI/RFI protection.

STP

Shielded Twisted Pair:
Also known as S/UTP, STP network cable features an overall braided shield over unshielded twisted pairs. This cable can support higher transmission rates over longer distances compared to UTP and provides better mechanical strength and grounding due to the braided layer.

SF/UTP

Shielded Foiled/Unshielded Twisted Pair:
SF/UTP network cables feature an overall braided shield and foil shielding around the unshielded twisted pairs. This cable effectively prevents EMI from both within the cable and from external sources, and provides better grounding due to the additional braided layer.

UTP

Unshielded Twisted Pair:
U/FTP network cables provide shielding for each twisted pair through foil wrapping, offering partial protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk originating from neighboring pairs and other cables, despite the absence of overall shielding.

F/FTP

Foiled/Foiled Twisted Pair:
F/FTP network cables have overall foil shielding and individual foil shielding around each twisted pair. They are similar to F/UTP cables but feature an additional foil shielding layer around each pair. The cable structure aims to provide better protection against crosstalk, RFI, and EMI from adjacent pairs and other cables.

S/FTP

Screened/ Foiled Twisted Pair:
Each pair of twisted wires in an S/FTP network cable is first wrapped with foil tape, and then encased in an overall flexible and mechanically robust braided shield. The additional foil layer helps reduce crosstalk between adjacent pairs and other cables, while the braided layer provides better grounding.

SF/FTP

Shielded Foiled/ Foiled Twisted Pair:
SF/FTP network cable offers maximum protection with both an overall braided shield and foil shielding, as well as individual foil tape shielding for each twisted pair. This type of cable provides the highest level of interference protection against RFI/EMI, crosstalk, and external interference.
