As someone who is a veteran in the field... Pass through crimp heads like the ones used in the video were banned in my company. Why? Because eventually they cause connectivity issues due to shorts at the connection ends. Why? Because the person who terminated... Like in the video... Trust that his crimper cuts the wires close enough to the head.... They don't. And oftentimes your Cat 6 tester won't show you it's shorting either. While a pass through connector may have saved the initial installer time, it has cost me countless hours in service calls going back to fix them all, and the initial installer never had to deal with it. 9/10 times a connection issue was caused by one of these. Lesson... PLEASE DON'T USE PASS THROUGH CONNECTORS. However... If you absolutely must... Instead of relying on your crimper tool to trim the ends, a much better method is to use your flush cutter to trim the ends first, then PULL THE CABLE SLIGHTLY BACK from the head to make sure all the wire ends are SECURELY INSIDE the connector head. This reduces the chance of shorts dramatically.
I hate the pass throughs and I’m 1.5 years in! I’m super new but can’t stand the pass throughs.
@@D4bidI feel you. Unfortunately there are so many that are confused by the connectors "convenience" that they don't listen to me when I tell them they almost inevitably cause every connector related issue I've had to fix
I’m only an amateur, but I was wondering about daggy cuts causing problems, just as in other termination types (plugs etc). You’ve answered my question. Many thanks.
I've never had this problem at any site I've ever been to. And I've been to many many break/fix tickets.
I've terminated thousands of pass throughs and my employees have done the same for over a decade. Not one single failure that wasn't apparent immediately due to installer error.
Using the outer sheath to straighten the twists is a nice trick, I wish I'd thought about this when I was 18 and making 40 patch leads, doh!
Quicker to use a small flat screwdriver
@@austincantrell2575 But at the risk of stripping it because the screwdriver is hard?
@@headbanger1428 you need to get one of the Klein 4 in 1 it has a round polished shaft just stick the flat blade between to the shaft and pull and straighten the wire with the shaft . I’ve never messed up a wire doing that and I do it every day nearly
@@austincantrell2575 I know Knipex are also the bomb here in Europe, but I’ll check out the Klein tool. Thanks!
@@headbanger1428 i just either use the shaft of a screwdriver or a framing nail... Pretty much anything with a small round diameter works.
Edit: Nevermind, you might be talking about using the flathead for untwisting... I use the shaft or nail after untwisting to just straighten them. I guess i need to try the flathead screwdriver trick to see if it untwists and straightens in a single go... Never tried it.
Notes. You are technically supposed to strip the sheath, then use the cotton cord to strip a longer section of sheath which protects the cores from potentially being scored by the blade. The sheath wasn’t pushed up as far into the plug as far as I believe it should be. The reason for this is leaving the sheath so far back may allow pulling on the cable to expose the cores out the back of the plug. If the sheath is pushed up, it gets crimped along with the cores.
But if it works, it works and do it the way you do it. Just slight wrongs should be pointed out if it’s an instructional video imo
If you have an adjustable crimper then you don't need to, I use a knipex one that lets you set the blade depth, I set it so that it scores the outer insulation and then you basically just snap it off, no inner core damage.
there are these 20c yellow strippers designed for telecom use, they work better than any integrated stripping tool i've ever used and wont damage the inner conductors
Omg that’s what the cotton is for 😂
Wow there is nothing quick about this!
Also as a veteran low voltage guy I still say passthrough crimp ends are a danger for shorts, I know you may of never seen it happen but there is a reason they are not permitted in some installs.
We used them at my company for a few weeks, guaranteed we had to go back to every one and pull them out and reterminate. They are garbage and like you say, do nothing but short
The vast majority of my cabling is terminated into mechs, not jacks, but I can't see how a passthrough jack could result in a short (and any danger that would cause unless to your own sanity having to redo a failed crimp). Is there a flaw that I've yet to discover?
Only time we've had them short is when the installer has used snips to trim the ends, and not the proper crimper that trims them. I prefer the ones with the little plastic insert
We use them, but we don't use the blade on the crimpers. We cut our excess and backpull the wires like .5 - 1mm so we don't short
Down here in FL I can't tell you how many times I have found these passthrough connections completely coroded from the humidity. Nothing like saving a few cents on the connector and install just to damage the $2k component on the end of it. Just learn how to properly measure the proper RJ45 connector and take some pride in your work.
The nylon cord is there for a reason. Belden will hate you because you should tear the sheath with it so your stripping tool doesn't damage the conductor wire...
What reason ?
you don't haver access to the nylon cord until you strip the sheath off . so only useful if you will to stip way more then you need , to me he did it correctly
I've never used these pass through connectors but just watching cables being terminated brings back memories.
I can still hear myself reciting the color sequence as I would terminate and crimp cables.
Orange white, orange, green white, blue, blue white, green, brown white, brown.
Type B all the way baby!
I have been using pass through crimps for well over a year now, such a time saver when you are building a large control panel.
I haven’t used the outer shell to untwist the cable pairs before but it looks like a nifty way to things. Also, I like the connectors - I have not seen them before, but the cool thing about them is that allows for a final check if the config before crimping far more easily than plugs that do not enable the cable pairs to be pushed right through it. Very cool - thanks for sharing 👍😃
I'm a professional and I did NEVER cut that much of cover to make the wiring, I cut 5 cm max, I think that's wasting too much cable
Now try this with cat 6a 🤣
5e or 6a? 🤨
After you strip the insulation, you are left with very similar conductors for 6 and 6A; 6A is a nightmare to work with because of the bend radius.
No such thing as CAT6e
These are 6a connectors, see the packet as he gets one out.
@@alexanderbuckland be aware that CAT6A comes in different AWG sizes - the larger wire gauge stuff won't fit into these and requires special (expensive) connectors to make off - they are nice to work with though 🙂
I saw him untwisting the wires and initially my brain went "what is this tool!? I need it!" ... Then I realized it's just the sheath and 🤯
They do make a tool for it. It's somewhere in the bottom of one of my bags. Haven't found it to be worthwhile. This trick might be the one I use though.
@@Robinzano lol, gotta love those tools. "This will be so handy!" *Uses it one time and it never sees the light of day again*
Hahaha. The slowest fast way I've ever seen
@Zimmer Handcrafted Thing is he's straightening/unwinding several inches of turns but if he just cut it the right length in the first place, it's only a couple of turns anyway.
J’adore cette technique que vous utiliser pour redresser les brins 😊
When I was taking a CCNA course in college we had to do it the hard way. LOL
I've learned something from this, thank you!
I've just got myself some cat6 cable and bits to stick into walls so this has popped up exactly at the right time 👍
I've always used a flathead to untwist the pairs
A data guy just taught me that trick recently. 10x easier 👍
I used to have a small flathead that I ground the handle down on. It was perfect, fit in my hand for termination and was the right length to get into small enclosures at weird angles. Showed it off to the new guy and he quit a week later. He nabbed my driver on the way out. Ugh
This old guy just learned a new trick to untwist the pairs. Thanks much.
1 down, 150,000 to go. Better speed this up...boss is waiting
Its dangerous to strip the outer jacket that way cuz you can easily cut into the pairs. Its better to strip out some jacket then use the pull string to cut the jacket back to where you want.
Good video! Never thought of using outer sleeve to unwind the twisted pairs and straighten them. I could have saved thumb pain from doing so many of these
the boot is supposed to be crimped on, pushing the boot on forces the retaining clip back down and so it releases the grip on the cable, defeating its purpose. So before crimping insert the boot so that the clip is pushed up to grip the cable and hold the boot in place
Depends on the boot. I've had both kinds, make sure you check the manufacturer specs
Respect. Without water. Perfect
A lot saying pass through are or should be banned. But the new ones now have added a small lip on the connector to accommodate limiting shorts.
Yes the old ones. It was possible. But I have to say I haven’t had any issues with modern versions
I won’t use veteran when describing my time in networks. I’ll
Leave that to describe my military time!!
I am 18 years in the network industry tho
My favorite is when I get called out for a connection issue because a low volt couldn’t tell the difference between the solid brown and solid orange. Tbf though a lot of companies make the colors very similar. That’s why you should always double check your work and use a T56A/B tester.
Мало! Надо было полметра зачистить, а потом еще выпрямлять полчаса, ну а потом это все срезать. С такими коннекторами каждый сможет, попробуй с глухими отверстиями
У нас продаются только глухие коннекторы! Вот их пускай попробует!
32 сек на обжим одного конца
Все лайвхакеры так зачищают провода. Хотя по сути там и пару сантиметров за глаза хватает, ещё и обрежется.
Our cable manufacture sells passthrough cat5/6 RJ's and crimps so I'm happy to use them. We always fluke them, only ever have problems with cat5 as sometimes the conductors slip between slots. Also had a nightmare once when a different passthrough RJ was used on our manufactures crimps. I tend to untwist by rotating the TP, I don't bother untwisting it all just cut off what I don't need. hard to explain but I'm normally faster than most installers using this method.
Love the outer sheath trick 👍
Quicker to insert a slotted screwdriver between the twist and just pull it up - they straighten pretty much doing it.
That's what I do using a flat head precision screwdriver.
I’ve seen that nick the wires too many times.
I tell everyone in my team to use methods that make mistakes impossible.
IE nicking a wire with the tweakers.
Using the shear is the best method I’ve ever found.
@@asdqwezxcasdqwezxc12why not have a nylon pick? Not an electrician, but I've used a few different plastic pry tools the same size as a precision screwdriver. I've always wondered why if a nick is a concern, but the method works well, why not get some of those?
These new RJ45 are a game changer
I like that little trick using the jacket to untwist the pairs. I'm doing that next time
Try making those on a 30 foot ladder for security cameras on the underside of an eve trough lol I know I have 😊 those pass through connectors make the job a whole lot easier
С трубочкой идея распутывания понравилась, но расход кабеля больше
We do this too in school,but we did straight through cable,where the color combination is different.
using the sheathing to straighten the wires out im gonna have to try that
Pass through are great for people who don't regularly terminate RJ45's. Otherwise, getting the correct length of conducters to crimp properly doesn't take that much more time, just a little more skill 😘
I did like using the outer sheath to separate the pair though, not seen that before.
My crimp tool cuts the sheath at the correct length. Then it's only untwisting 1-2 twists per pair (not 3 inches), sort the wires and trim flush then insert and crimp.
Os cabos atravessando o conector? Nunca tinha visto! Gostei!
I like the way you used a bit off plastic tube to u twist the wire.
The tube trick is nice, was doing with pencil but this is simpler!
The high level clean job
Outstanding tools
Nice bit of kit
yeah those plugs the cores come out the other side and cut in the same action as the crimp is nice.
Wait wait wait that untwist technique may need to be given a try on Monday
Very nice!
Cat 3 now :)
Great job🎉
Straighten them cores out with bare fingers!!!! You get lovely burn lines!!!!
Is this news? Through-plugs have been around for years...
News to me, but I've been out of the game for 20 years....
interesting leaning something new every day.
Sun sky grass earth... Between the green
Wow that's quick
I tried this method to untwist, but I still prefer to pinch the pair with both hands and roll the wrist.
I have not come across these types of RJ connectors yet, but I prefer the close edge connectors I'm using, though!
I take at least five times longer. Luckily, I only do this every once and a while at my house, vs work anymore.
Great video my only tip to make it even easier is cut the wires at an angle so it's like a knife it's easier as first wire goes through then second ect .
Thank you sir
Thanks😊
so awesome!
В армии обжимал ответкой , а однажды даже припаивал напрямую к сетевым не было коннектеров
NEVER last a DAY as an actual telecom tech
Just attempting this process for the first time and wish i spoke your language, so i could understand the advice!! Could someone try explaining the advice as if they were trying to teach their grandad how to use a DVD player please?? 😉 THANKS
This’ll be handy when I use my time machine to revisit 1995
what 😂 rj45 will always be common place
@@lukelegg9915 Most people just believe WiFi is the only kind of Internet, or that it is everything they will ever need.
For example, when I wanted to run an Ethernet cable to my computer, my roommates screamed at me that we have WiFi, that I'm stupid, and that a wired connection is dialup.
Diamond smasher doesn't know rj45 are commonplace and are only more extensive now than ever.
Maybe if you were talking about a parallel port or a d-sub9 1995 would apply
Thanks for trick
Cada vez más fácil hacerlo, recuerdo que antes tenías que medir la pinshe distancia entre el cable y lo que entra en el conector, si lo dejabas corto, no hacía contacto, si lo dejabas largo, no embona a el capuchón jajaja
It took me years to learn the method of using the jacket to separate the twisted pair.
There is no easy way to do this 😂
I definitely think the pass through connectors are king keystones are fun too
This is like crimping an rj45 but with extra steps. Straightening the wires with your bare fingers is faster. And yes, I made 40 yesterday, I know it hurts after 5. Also those cut end connectors look faster, but you have to cut them again a little to ensure everything is flush
Use a Bic pen to help you straighten the wires. Your fingertips will thank you.
Nah I got a better way. Use a 3/8" wedge anchor bolt. No pain, 3 times faster than every other method ever devised.
video title should be: super complicated way to wire rj45 plugs.
I wanna see, ...
plug it in with a rj45 socket that doesn't see through like that, I'm not sure if the pins will bite it flat.
How you unwound them with the pvc is the slow way lol. Hahaha
IEEE Standards... There is a tear in my eye
I work at Progressive Office Cabling,we get it right the first time and always verify no shorts via cable certification
Use the razor cutters on the crimp tool to cut the cores before passing them through, no matter how nice your flush cutters are, they squash the conductors slightly, making them harder to get into the connector.
Awesome
CAT5 is always quick and easy… it’s CAT6 that isn’t :)
Cat6 is no harder then Cat5e, now Cat6A 🤮
@@calebpurvis6195 yeh but this video was about CAT5, not CAT5e! I’m sure CAT6a is even worse to terminate, gladly it’s not something I have ever felt the need to do!
Wow nice
Been using the ezrj45 tool and they do NOT CAUSE the wires to short like the other pass through . And you get better bandwidth when you can pull the twists closer to the head . So to all you saying don't use pass through , you are clueless. I have done thousands of connections for several years now with this particular brand and have not had one failure. Also my way of smoothing the wires is faster and easier on the thumb . Get yourseld a half inch or 3/8th wedge anchor and use the threads on the bolt . You can smooth 4 wires at once. Thank me later .
From 30 years of data, it’s not only the attention to terminating quality, the installation and method is as important as any old sparka can and do lash in data and believe me I’ve seen some right abortions in my time.
With ever increasing data rates and thicker data wires installation methods are becoming increasingly important with considerations that lighting is moving mote towards data cabling with control manage systems in domestic settings.
Oh and no more than a 45 degree bend once stripped as bending distorts the surface of the copper wire, creating a break or a bottle neck in the electron flow.
Seeing as I’m now a data engineer, training to become a sparky aswell I’m learning the more in-depth science and mathematics (alot….ALOT of that!!) and it’s fascinating science, even at 52 this not quite old dog, is learning new tricks.
I've always found it ten times more reliable to use pre-made patch cables and punch-down keystone jacks on infrastructure or custom extensions.
Lol. I can do it faster with only 2cm strip......😂👍
You can always spot a sparky because they tend to strip back about 5x more than they need.
Nice
This is the hardest way. Gg. :D
My dad works with cat5 cable
Instead of untwisting the cables with the pvc, take a small laptop screwdriver - place between the bottom twist and pull up. you will get PERFECTLY straight cables to use
Nice Playschool connector ya got there kid.
Love pass thrus
Even with connectors Through Pass u r sooooooo SLOOOOOW!!!
you should show something really useful
With that plugs is really easy
Excelente!!! 👌
you skipped the part where you cut off the ends after passing them through then pulling it back just enough for the ends to be about flush with the end of the connector
You are supposed to put the boot on before you crimp, so that it gets fixed in place by the strain latch.
How do you do that with the outer jacket is it all-the-way hollow empty or is there something in there
Hi ..
This was my part of work.
Anyway .. agreed with @ZadestLegacy & his comment.
The same goes here in Malaysia .. we don't use the pass through connector.
So what about shielded cables? (having started using them for outside or very long runs - the stuff works wonders)
LOL the slower harder version.
That' great, I hate crimping RJ45s. Maybe this way I could like it :-)
And does this precise cable works with whote twisted blue and green lines inverted ?
Замечательно.
