- In this video I show y'all how to terminate a Cat6a RJ45 STP Keystone Jack from FS.com. You also get to witness the first and second time terminating both ends of a cable with 0 practice before filming. Yes I know. I am very shocked myself.

Good video probably should have used shielded cat6a but you explained very thoroughly.
Just wired my house upstairs for fiber -> cat6 -> switch. This was a great help. Worked first time, thanks!
Glad it helped!
This isn't great i'm afriad - Your ment to trim the 8 cables closer to the plastic collar, as per manafacturers instruction, No more than 0,5mm is acceptable otherwise you run the risk of the 8 cables shorting out to the metal body and cause noise or in worst case no connection at all. And as previously mentioned, you've not used the cables drain wire for the shielding of the cable (as per the title of this video) so you've potentially created an antenna for noise on the cable.
I've got those same EZ crimpers, I love them.
Great video, thanks. I'd love to see some iperf benchmarks to test those 6a keystones, but ofc, you need a 10G port on both ends.
I'm confused, you're not using shielded cable, so there is no shielding protection. The metal keystone is not making contact with any foil or drain wire so it's not shielding anything. Am I missing something? I think you'll find that if you use a cable tester, you'll have no shield continuity.
This is true. Purely demo purposes on the wiring portion
I gotcha. Just missing the info on making contact between the housing and shielding, but yeah good for the pin out.
You do bring up a very good point. Don’t let me sound dismissive
@@SPXLabs I would think you would have shielded cable so that the demo would be complete.
Let me demo how to terminate a shielded cable without using a shielded cable. Joke of a video.
A little trick to cutting the center out of cat6 cable, PULL the center a little bit, cut it, then pull back the other way. The Center divider ( how and what ever people call it these days ) will slide back in and be much cleaner :) Good video !
Did we just comment on each other’s channels at the same time?
@@SPXLabs correct, next step is talking on the phone lol :)
If we call each other at the same time though I’ll get a busy signal
@@SPXLabs Guess i'll have to beat you to the Tone with my ninja skills :P
Lol. OOOOOOOR we could just meet on discord?? I’m like on almost every Monday and Thursday night 8Central
Well done! Just untwist only as little as possible, as that ensures signal integrity
Or just use WiFi 🥴
@@SPXLabs 6E😲
@@SPXLabs I hope that was a joke
I was being completely playful
Thank you.
don't you need to keep the threads twisted inside the keystone?
I bought myself female to female keystones. I initially thought it was going to be simpler.. But like I said before on another of your video, after terminating 15 CAT6 cables and my fingers ending being tender at the end of the day, I think next time I'll just terminate 1 end with RJ-45 jacks and just use these at the network rack end.
Lol yeah I will definitely push my next person towards anything else over female to female patch panels. But hey now you are basically done forever!
@@SPXLabs Until I move somewhere else (nooooooooooooooo!)... Well, I just have many patch cables to do now... Really not looking forward to that. I know, I could purchase those but I'll save a tone of $$ doing them myself.. I'll just need some new fingers lol
Lol man I know the feeling. Idk if you’ve seen past videos but I’ve moved like 5 times since I started the channel. Moving is both a blessing and mostly a curse because you can redo your rack how you want
@@SPXLabs Yes, I've seen your past videos. And yes it is a curse. I mean it is fun to move in a new place and think about your design but doing all of this by yourself takes a long time. And not to put down the work of contractors who can do it for you, I trust more in my work as I am a perfectionist. If ever I move, it will be my last permanent location as I don't want to do this 5 times lolllllllll
Yeah I’ve said and heard that before. It’s my last time I swear!
So far the contractors run the cable pretty well about 70% of the time from my experience. So I get it and agree.
Lol that this is the first recommended video for a shielded keystone Jack, and then the title misleads you into watching the video, and the shielding isn't even demonstrated😂
Hi, great video! I am now running CAT6 in my home network... I just bought a 5 port switch but the CAT6a cable doesn't fit. Do you have recommendation for a simple 5 port switch that supports CAT 6a ?
by support I mean, that it has bigger ports so that a CAT 6a cable can be plugged in..
That seems incredibly strange. Either the switch you have does not use the RJ45 connector or the cable you have does not have an RJ45 connector. Either way, RJ45 has been used for several years and is still used all the way up to CAT 8 cable. CAT4, CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6, CAT6a, CAT7, and so forth all use RJ45.
Can I know more about your goals? CAT6a is typically complete overkill for home use, with exceptions of course. Normally people install CAT6a because they want 10Gbps connections between computer clients and servers.
@@SPXLabs Thank you for your reply. Switch in question is TP Link 5 port - TL-SG105, I am able to fit my premade CAT 5 rj45's , however, my CAT 6A rj45 just barely do not fit. (They do fit in my Cisco Smat POE Switch) but do not fit in the 16.00 TP Link 5 port switch. If you ever experience or hear from other, please reply back to this thread. Thanks again and keep the good content coming!
That's really really weird.

I have to do around 90 of them this week 😢
Ouch. I’m sorry. It’s not so bad. Better than a lot of the old methods
Got fiber aye
The title of this video is read as "Terminate a CAT6A shielded keystone jacks", but he used an unshielded cable. There are too many idiots trying to make videos on TH-cam these days.
Well the keystone jack is shielded soooo.
i hate those damn connectors
Why? Too much trouble?
@@SPXLabs they tend to test for bad ground on fluke networking testers
Really?? That’s interesting. I wish I had a fluke tester to see that happen
> Names video "Terminate shielded keystone jack"
> Shows how to terminate a non shielded wire
Da fuq, bro.
Yeah I know… didn’t really think too much of it at the time.
First
you didn't use shielded cable
