Building a Cable

Cutting Blade

Crimper 8-pin

Crimper 6-pin

 

1.Use the Combo Crimping tool to trim both ends of the cables by using the blade closest to the handle. Be sure that both ends are cut square.

2.Use the trimming blade to strip the jacket off both ends of the cable. thus exposing the individual color coded conductors.

3.Remove a length of jacket so that, when conductors are pushed all the way to the front of the connectors, the jacket extends under the slot on the connector where the crimping operation will hold it for strain relief.

4.Insert the conductors into the RJ45/RJ11 connector so that the blue conductor goes to pin 1.
