    Nice if you explained that the wires are 4 up and 4 bottom and a good look of you first putting the wires in the rake, thank you

    Thank you very much and very educational. With this adaptation I save the Ethernet adapter that Starlink offers?

    forgive me as I skimmed a fair amount of the video I was primarily just interested in seeing whether they used the proper cable coloring unlike some other 8-wire cables like consoles. I used to teach networking at the college level so I can terminate a B connector in my sleep pretty much. however I was curious what POE standard you need to conform to, to power the dish, in the event that this was being used at a site that actually had network equipment with native POE on ports.

    Great video. A couple of questions, though. Does it hurt anything to leave the metallic foil shield, doubled back inside out? Is there any advantage to leaving it on? It would be a lot easier than trying to double it back without tearing it. Also, I suppose the use of the "rakes" makes the use of pass-through connectors unnecessary?

    Can you please confirm the wire layout? You say Starlink uses a 568B standard where I have seen on other videos that Starlink separates the "Blue" and "blue white". Like this:
    1) orange/white
    2) orange
    3) blue/white
    4) green
    5) green/white
    6) blue
    7) brown/white
    8) brown

    SpaceTek, what is the make or part number of the "rake" shown at 6:30 in the video? That would be very handy. Are certain Cat-5e connectors compatible or do they work with most of them? thanks for the video!

      They are part of a complete plug set that SpaceTek have made to specifications.
      We other 20k at a time.
      They are available as a 10pack on our website or larger quantities by request.

    Starlink uses a different pairing. You recommend T568B. I suppose there is no problem as long as two like wired cables are interconnected since the incorrect pairing of one cable would be reversed by the other cable but would there be a problem if a Starlink cable was connected to a T568B/T568B cable?

    • @spacetek
      @spacetek  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you are making a patch lead then you just make sure both ends are the same.
      For the starlink cable however it is T568B only.

    curious - what does the drain wire actually do - not actually required to work - but helps with draining excess electricity ? So pretty much just a standard cat5e cable otherwise ? No problems using cat6 etc and splicing in the proprietary ends even.

    • @spacetek
      @spacetek  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      It drains static electricity the builds up in the surface during operation and electrical storms.
      Other than that it is cat5e

    Hello fellow Starlink Community,
    I bought the Starlink Gen 2 and I will be moving in a new Apartment next month.
    I have a problem.
    My landlord does not allow to drill cables through the wall.
    Now I need a new solution.
    How am I supposed to connect the starlink cable from outside the house to the router inside? Is there an option to get it through the window? I have European windows (Germany). I know there are antenna window feed through flat cables but is there an option for the starlink setup?
    I would be happy if there is an option to connect the router without going through the wall.
    Thank you in advance

    • @spacetek
      @spacetek  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Unfortunately there is not simple solution.
      Through the window will work and you can use some foam to seal it from weather and insects.

    Followed these directions but had no success in getting Starlink dish to come online. Replaced the shielded pass thru connectors twice, but still no go. The only thing I can think of is that the joiner I bought does not appear to be shielded, so the drain wire seems to be isolated at each connector and not feeding thru. Could that be the issue?

    • @hudson_orr
      @hudson_orr 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      yes, get a shielded coupler

      The drain wire is important but won’t stop it from working.

    • @Nature90Lover
      @Nature90Lover 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @spacetek Same here. The dish has power as it rotates and positions itself due south but on the app it says not connected to dish and theres no internet. Could it be that one of the 8 wires didnt get crimped properly?
      Also when i first crimped the rj45 i did one end in the opposite order accidentally, then coupled them to test. How badly this i mess up the dish or is there a protection in place to prevent any damage from this kind of wiring?
      And to add, my coupler is also not shielded.

    PLEASE NOTICE
    Can you split the original cable of starlink the
    1. White orange,
    2. Orange
    3. White green
    6. Green
    Insert is to the third party router( not the starlink router)
    * The power supply will still be its original source ( from the starlink router) but instead of having the internet go directly to the starlink router, it will be go through the third party router.
    Isa this possible? PLEASE notice

    Its such a crock that only licensed cablers can make a change to a low voltage data cable. I understand if it was running mains. But I've every house I've owned, I've cabled it myself. It's not rocket science.

    You need to use a "licensed cabler" to modify a low voltage cable for your own use?? Holy cow, your government is crazy! Why don't you folks vote for freedom and throw the bums out???
