How to Crimp RJ45 to Cat5e or Cat6 cable

This shows, in great and close-up detail, how to crimp an RJ-45 (aka: 8P8C) connector on to a Catagory 5e or Catagory 6 cable.

Every detail is shown close-up.

The RJ-45 crimp-on end is used to create a plug-able termination point on an Ethernet cable - either Cat5e or Cat6. This is something that is frequently done by telecom field technicians when a short cable is needed.

This connection is formally known as an 8P8C or 8-pin, 8 conductor. However, in the industry it is commonly called an RJ-45 (which is technically, incorrect). And, even less formally called a "network Plug" by the lay-person.

Generally, Rj-45 (8P8C) crimp-on ends are not used to terminate permanent horizontal network infrastructure.

The wire color pattern for the a straight-thru (normal) Ethernet cable terminated in a RJ-45 plug would be:
