By popular demand by our awesome viewers and subscribers! On today's episode we will show you how to punch down / terminate an RJ45 jack for a wall plate. Thank you for watching!
I just switched companies doing AV and light networking, so I enjoy all of these videos. I have been in the electrical field for a while, but im broadening my knowledge
Thanks a ton for this video. Was able to wire up my wallplate because of it.
Glad it helped!
with no previous knowledge I was able to fix my wall port using your video. thanks!
Glad I could help!
Quite possibly the best video I’ve seen on this topic. Short and to the point.
Thank you for watching and the kind comments. Have a great day!
What punch down tool would you recommend if you don't have one of the small free ones?
thanks for the tips, i saw ur video and tried it and it came out perfectly! my ps4 speed went from 39mps to 380mps sheeeesh
How about the wiring to the pole? Like the cat5 coming from the pole. I'm not sure if im asking the right ?.
My Ethernet jack was non responsive when I hooked up lap top. I pulled off cover plate and see that 6 of the 8 wires are flopping around unconnected. I guess I just need to snip the ends for a fresh section of wire (the ends are crooked, looks like they were pushed in previously but came out) and insert with the punch down tool. I guess the connection contact is still good. I wonder why the others came loose? Should I get a whole new plug or just push them in again? I guess can't hurt to see what happens if I push in again. I suppose I will need to find a paid for push down tool. Thanks for the video.
Following these instructions worked for me! Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you for watching I really appreciate it! 😀
Excellent video very helpful thanks
Thank you for watching!
Good Video, Thank you!
Thanks for watching Joseph! 😀
What if you have a mobile home ? How can you install internet jacks in other rooms ?
Hii .. how possible connected two cate 6 in one wall jack ?
I’m thinking of using a dual keystone. Question, do you have to run 2 separate wires from your modem or can you run 1 wire from your modem and split it somehow? Great video. Thanks
You need 2 separate lines. Here is a video that can help.
th-cam.com/video/4CUyU_v2qS0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for watching I really appreciate it.
how do you remove the cap/cover at the end if something doesnt work properly and you need to check the wiring again ?
It just pops off with a little bit of pressure.
I’ve seen a few female to female wall plates online. Would this work the same way and are there any downsides in doing it that way? Seems to be easier with no terminating wires or anything. Plus I don’t have to buy all the tools etc.
Absolutely will work! Its just not as secure ( Wired to Wall Jack will not become unplugged like the female to female which could come unplugged accidentally. ) as the traditional method. But yes no tools needed! Thank you for watching!
Good job
what if someone has already wired up your wall jacks, but you don't know if they wired them for the A or B standard, and they didn't terminate the other side? Is there any easy way to see which standard they used so you can terminate the other end of the wire to the same standard?
Terminate the other side using the T568b configuration. 99 percent of homes use that configuration.
How easy is it to remove the cable and redo if you mess something up or want to reuse it or shorting cable?
Very easy!
Mike thanks for the URL. My next question. I would like to have 2 - two port keystone hook-ups? But do I need a 2 port? One would be for my TV/reciever. The other 2 port keystone would be for my laptop (I have very poor Wi-Fi). What would I need 2 - two for? Or would I just need 1 at each location? And would the TV location hook -up to the directv reciever or directly to the TV? Thanks again.
I would have 2 at each location. I've always learned if your run 1 cat6 you should run 2. It doesn't cost much more and more ports is better!
Which wires of the cat6 are needed for home internet? As in will on pair do the job?
You need to use all 8 wires. You could use 2 wires but you'll only get 100Mbps max. Just use all 8 wires. Hope this helps. Thank you for watching I really appreciate it.
I saw that you can buy an adapter with two female Keystoneplugs, making it easier to plug. Do you have any experience working with those? One example are Deltaco MD 126
They are good but I prefer wiring them myself. I feel it's a better and more secure connection. Thank you for watching I really appreciate.
@@UltimateTechHub No problems. I love these kind of things since I very seldom do it myself but I built computers before. Will have to decide which way to go. Probably will go for wires since Im doing a wire cross 5 meters outdoors under gardenstones. Have a good day sir!
Hi, thank you for the video, my question is you don’t need the wires to be exposed?
Nope.
The punch down process cuts the insulation.
How do you know if the keystone block is T568A or B? If you follow the color codes, can you go wrong? It's been 5 years since I was asked to install some network cabling so I needed a refresher course! Thank-you! Q3: In the average home, is there a need to use shielded STP cable instead of standard UTP? Appreciate it! (I'm an electrician and it's been years since tackling phone or data cabling. Most of my demands have been for electrical.)
The keystone block can be either A or B but the wiring diagram I use in the video is B. Just follow my install. Standard UTP in most homes is fantastic. If you have lots of interference in your home then shielded would be better. I have a few deferent cable products in my links in the description and I use those products in my home. Thank you for watching and keep me posted.
@@UltimateTechHubDifferent keystone blocks have different wiring configurations, unfortunately
What is the B and A for on the Jack? How do I know which one to use?
Use B it's the most widely used.
If you're installing a double wallplate why can't you run one wire/cable and spice it to connect the other port?
That is possible for sure. Keep in mind that your speed is limited to 100mbps in this setup. Better off using a network switch from one of the ethernet ports.
Do they wires not need to be stripped for the connection to be made?
Nope.
I need help how to make it go to ur router and to your gaming room.
So, I’m doing a project where I have my cat 6 coming from the attic into the closet in every room in the house.
My question, should I just create a hole the size of the cable from inside the closet and push it through to where I’m going to connect the keystone outside of the closets or ?
So if you are running a bunch of cat6 into your closet you need a modem, router and a switch. Where are these devices going to be located? On a shelf? On a table? Or maybe you should install a wall mounted rack for those decives. Or you can install a network panel inside the wall. I have 70 network videos that show my network panel and how it all works. As far as a hole definitely drill a 1 inch hole to fit all of the cat6 cables. I have 2 holes in my attic because I have 27 cat6 lines. I hope this helps. Good luck and keep me posted. Thank you for watching.
@@UltimateTechHub thank you. Right now I have 6 cat6 cable going up to the attic and from there they drop down into the closet of each bedroom closet. The plan was to put a hole from inside the closet to the outside of the closet and install keystone connector so they can connect.
The hallway where the 6 cat6 cables are will be connected from a switch. I need to buy. Router and modem but I’m not sure what is a good brand. You see I have Fios and renting there all in one router/modem.
What do you recommend?
@@mccslawg I would recommend a Netgear or Linksys router. Arris makes a solid modem. You may a switch too. Tplink makes cheap reliable switches.
Hi, thanks for the videos. I’ve got a question. I’ve done two separate Ethernet outlets. I need one to act as in INPUT in one room, and one to act as an OUTPUT in another room. Is there any difference in ports/wiring for Input/Output of Cat6 cables?
Nope each ethernet port is an input and an output. Data travels in both directions on each wire. Thank you for watching and if you subscribed thank you as well.
Which is better rj45 connector or keystone jack for cat6?
Either one will work perfectly. Unless you plan on getting above 1gig speeds from your ISP and install cat6a into your network. We have 1gig fiber and most of our plugs are RJ45. I have maybe 5 or 6 that are cat6 and there is no difference in speeds.
Is this the same for Australia T-568A.
Yes, the T-568A or T-568B are the same world-wide. In the USA T-568B is used most often.
Is there a different between a commercial jack and residential
Mostly durability but not much difference.
quick and to the point thank you. just curious. is your arrangement 568A or B?
568B. Thank you for watching I really appreciate it.
@@UltimateTechHub But, the wall jack diagram at 2:30 shows that the orange wires on the left and green on the right are marked as "A". Am I missing something? Just wondering as I bought a similar wall jack :) Thanks!
@@UltimateTechHub Pretty sure you wired it up 568A in this video. You should address this because it's very confusing for beginners.
B. Thank you for watching I really appreciate it.
@@UltimateTechHub If you pause the video at 2:30, it clearly shows you are following the A configuration. What are we missing here? Why do you say it's the B configuration?
Why my keystone has different labels for wires. I have brown ones cross opposite to blue ones, where as yours have straight opposite.
Use the provided instructions to match the wires. Use the residential wiring diagram.
My problem is UNSNAPPING the jack from the old wall plate. I’ve seen countless videos show me how to do the wires into an new jack. I can’t even get to that step without detaching the old wall plate.
There's a tab you can push down to release the jack from the plate.
Nice video however don't forget in order to mount the faceplate into the wall always use an MPLS
What’s that? Yhanks
What is the different between cat5e and cat6 ? What's better?
Watch this video I made on the differences.
th-cam.com/video/D7bBiskGo7E/w-d-xo.html
Could I use one cat6 cable and split out into one cable jack and one telephone jack ?
Can I not go: ethernet > rj45 > wall plate > rj45 > ethernet > modem?
Yes. As long as the modem connects to the router.
@UltimateTechHub the cable in my house is 568-c.2
What configuration do I use for my rj24 because neither a or b seem to be working
Should I just use a cat6 network coupler?
Why are you not using a punch down tool that cuts the cable ?
I just used what came with the wall jack. And to be honest I never bought a punch down tool. Free is better. But in College I used the one that I showed in the video. I'm a simple man! Lol. Thanks for watching Jason!
@@sebastiancraft8060 It's good video, but you should use a punchdown tool that cuts the extra cable off. If you don't have one, use a pair of side cutters that are small to make it all clean. :)
You don't have to use a punch down tool, I made most of the connections at home and in my business with the yellow cable stripper and cut the ends with a cutter
@@JasonsLabVideoswho cares? Geez
@@ilbro7874 Hack job or Proper job ?
if my internet will never go above 200 mps, due to my location, cat5e will hinder me? at what point do i need to start over again and use cat 7, 8, 9, 10 etc?
Cat5e is all you need for 200mbps. Cat5e will give you the max speed.
Lowe’s does not give you a punch down tool steer clear of them
Will do, thnx.
Try it on a solid brick wall in situ going into a 4 wall plate haha get your head around that one Cat 6
Too much of this video is out of focus to be usable. Not recommended. Overall kinda sloppy install.
