This was the most helpful tutorial ever for RJ45 plugs. Nicely done!
I want to like this comment but I love how the community decided to leave this comment likes on 69 so imma leave it like that
True
i never really comment on youtube, but had to for this video alone. I purchased 1000ft cat 6 uft solid strand at a great price. I got the plugs, boots, crimper, snipper, network rj45 checker, everything...and couldnt make a damn good wire. Then i saw your videos and saw which way to put the guide and bingo! no more bum wires. Thanks so much for explaining, noone else explained it as much as you did. excellent.
Thanks for commenting :-)
One thing you did not show is the side of the CAT-5 and CAT-6 plugs. Look at the side of each plug, and you will see a BIG difference between the two. On a CAT-6 plug the outer sheath of the cable can come much closer to the gold pins.
When you look, you will see the difference without any problem.
I thought this might help.
Nice video you did on the plugs.
I have looked everywhere on the net and your video clearing shows the difference between Cat6 and Cat5. I recently purchased 3 cables from 3 sellers on ebay, and it reads on the cable cat6. The cables did not have staggered wires so, I returned the cable. I have read that the size of the wire requires them to be staggered, but I have not found any clear photos showing how they are staggered except for your video. Nice job!
This video hit the nail on the head, thank you for sharing. To the point, easy to understand. Cheers!
After watching 8 other video's that only showed how to crimp a connector to a cable, this one finally answered all my questions and then some.
Thanks!
So thorough! Answered all my questions and more.
This is the most informative networking video that I've seen in ages, thanks.
FINALLY. Thank you very much!!!!! Now this is absolutely amazing way of explaining things with a good attention to every detail thank you sir!
Thank you for this video, it's of great help. I have that mistake for the longest time. Cat5 rj45 on Cat6 cables. Am glad that I won't make that mistake again.
a helpful video that made that actually answered everything plain and simple, it was a pleasure to watch
Glad to have stumbled upon this. Didn't realize my network was not getting gigabyte speeds until yesterday when my new switch came in. So had to go to lowes and grab some cat 6. They didn't have any cat 6 heads so I went with 5e. Cable tester showed my cable was fine but modem told me there were issues. Tried a few more. Then was like you know what let me get some proper cat 6 heads. Your video did help explain some differences i was looking for. Appreciate it.
Thanks so much. I had been wondering about this subject for years. You made it all very clear!
Answered my amateur questions in the first 60 seconds. Trying to choose ‘right’ cable to fit to new house being built and what cables I already have. Excellent, thanks.
Thank you for making this video. I just got done running a CAT6 cable to my workstation, and had the option to use CAT6 RJ45 plugs on it, but opted for CAT5e because it was $10 cheaper, with boots. While it's working fine, after seeing this video, I may want to return those plugs, and get the proper CAT6 plugs, just in case I have issues down the line.
This vid you made...absolutely wonderful!!! Very simply and (even better) VISUALLY demonstates exactly what I needed to know to complete my cable terminations. Now I know exactly what I need to buy! THANK YOU!@!@!
I was having problem with my Ethernet. I have a gigabit router and a 250 Mbps connection, But my internet speed was stuck at 100 Mbps. I am glad that I saw this. Now changed the cat5E to Cat6. Issue resolved.
Thanks Mate...
Cat 5e can pass 250mbps but there are a lot of knock off cables out there that don't use copper so that may have been the issue
THANK YOU for a VERY INFORMATIVE video! I learned a lot in 12 minutes!! Cheers!!!
Thank you for the video, learned a lot. For more than 15 years, I have had a disgust in stranded or 'soft core' cable. The latter almost always seems to 'deteriorate' the connection. Never mind using the correct plugs. I prefer soft 'stranded' and hardcore not be mixed.
Great video, You did a really good job of explaining it.
One of the most helpful videos I've ever seen. Thanks my mate
This is everything in a nutshell that I wanted to find about RJ45 cables and sockets. Thanks!!
Definitely quick helpful tip. Appreciate your time and effort in explaining!
Well Done. Just needed a quick refresh on Cat5e vs. Cat6 differences. Impressed by your camera's auto focus.
Spot on! Thanks for the great video which answered my questions that were "is there a difference between cat5e and cat6 RJ45 connectors" and "how to tell the difference". Cheers
very nice
this is how you make a video
clear and in depth
helped me out immensely big thumbs up
Thank you so much!! I've been wondering how to tell the difference between Cat5 and Cat6 for a while (yeh.... I never bothered to read the actual cable until now!) Thanks!!
Great video. Very detailed, what I was missing in other people's videos. Thanks.
Best description i've found, thanks mate
Great explanation I really needed to know about terminating solid core cable and didn’t know you can get stranded and solid RJ45 connectors
Thank you!! Best info on RJ45 connectors. Save me lots of searching.
Very informative video. I appreciate your effort when you try to get the connectors in focus.
really great video sir. well done and good job. please post more of such videos.will watch for sure .
Mridul Kaimal Thank you!
thanks greatly! appreciate you taking time to do this.
Great video, I finally found the info I needed. Thank you
Thank You! This answers many questions other videos do not address.
Thanks that was just the info I was looking for! Very Clear explanation!
Just really detailed explanation, I hope you have great day and more happiness
Thanks my mate Vince! I've been wondering how to tell this difference and even Wikipedia doesn't do it this right.
Very informative and straightforward. Thank you for this.
I really appreciate your effort sir.. Please take a bow from my end..
Sunshine & warm greetings to you from Kentucky, USA. Thanks for the great informative video.
Thank you so much. This helped me avoid buying Cat5 cables marked as Cat6.
Everything i wanted to know, and more! Very well explained too - i thank you sir! With all those tiny parts, you'd only do better with a microscope or otherwise magnified view of those small pieces. It was all pretty clear nonetheless - very good job :)
8 years ago and still useful Thank you
Really great video on RJ 45 Connector, Good job. Keep it up 👍
Great explanation. Thanks for taking the time to explain.
Very very helpful and very clearly presented. I wasted lots of time before I found this reading nonsense people posted on various fora - they talked about the colour being key! Now I know I have no CAT6 in my collection - RTFCL (read the f-- cable label!)
Very educative... Thank you
Thank you this helped me a lot So glad i found your video
Great video short and to the point. You answered my question in the first two or three paragraphs. Thank You :-)
Than you so much for this, still very relevant. This should be on wikipedia tbh. maybe i'll put it in and use this video as an source.
Perfect video man, saved me loads of time. 🍻
Interesting, good presentation, and useful information... Thanks,,,from the US.
Informative as always.
Thanks for the tutorial - it's very educated. Best.
Thanks for the good explanation. I install security cameras and it is very informative.
Excellent Video Sir
Thanks, you just cleared up everything.
Great video & a lot of help.
Great information, thanks!
Thank you so much for this video!
Great....Nice explain....thank you.

Hi Vince, very informative. I am trying to run the phone on existing Cat5e cable in the house with no luck. I should be straight forward
Very informative. Thank you
great explanation thanks
Very very very informative!
You’re awesome. Great video
And I was looking for Cat videos lol!!!
lol...Always the way with youtube!!!! I always end up with an snake eating an alligator or some bizarre animal contest.
If you look hard enough you might just be able to find some of those on the internet.
How to tell the difference between CAT and DOG
this would require there being 6 CATS and there is difference between CAT5e and CAT6. Sounds like an interesting video. Anyway I just got posted CAT5e RJ45's and i ask for CAT6. I think there is quite a few scammers out there.
lmao!!! meow!
Thanks a lot for the video info, God bless
Best explain and precise
THIS IS THE GREATEST THING! THANK YOU!!!
A very useful video.
Great tutorial, thanks a lot
Great video thank you!
Thank you for this!
Great details, thanks
Awesome video.
Very Good Video!
Nicely explained!!!!
Thanks, very helpful!
Good one, Yes the RJ45 plug does cause problem for the networking. in a troubleshooting, you must check the RJ45 plug for the problem cables
Excellent presentation, learned a lot. I wish I knew that before I ripped 50Feet from underground pipe because I thought that the dam cable was at fault as there was no internet connection..... It would not fit into the back of the wall plug (j45 cat 5) cable was cat6!!
Great information but now I have found out I have solid Cat6 where I wanted stranded and I'm using plugs for stranded. Back to MonoPrice I go!
good vid, thanks
Thanks for making these videos :D. You could use an inexpensive USB microscope to show detail of small items....
Nice job man, thanks
excellent video
Most helpful thank you
Thanks for the info!
