And make sure to sign up for our blog so you don’t miss a thing – stay tuned for our last post in this series, which will discuss RJ45 termination versatility. Very soon, we’ll introduce you to one that is truly REVolutionary, redefining the meaning of “termination ease.”įind out more about Belden connectivity solutions here. Our heavy-duty aluminium Cargo Carrier system is very popular due to its functional design: Cargo Carriers. You’ve spoken out, demanding a more reliable, easy-to-use connector. board, bike and bivvy just put it on the back. When using bonded-pair cable, an additional special tool and special process are required in order to complete the termination.īelden is excited to offer a new connectivity platform that will completely change the way you view RJ45 connectors. In Category 6A terminations, pair twists can be very tight, making for a complicated untwisting process. While all the tips we provided above are excellent best practices to follow, sometimes terminations still become complicated. Taking good measurements during the RJ45 termination process can ensure that you have enough space for your termination to reside, especially in wall outlets and when used in modular furniture. Sure, “measure twice, cut once” is a saying for builders, but it applies to us, too. Other examples of RJ45 termination aids include load bars, wire guides and stuffer caps. They also provide great strain relief for superior cable retention. These bars help stabilize pairs and ensure accurate positioning prior to termination. They also last much longer, with frequently available replacement parts (such as replacement headsets or cutting blades in Rapid Termination Tools) that allow you to continue using the same tools for a longer period of time instead of paying to replace them.īelden T-Bar and X-Bar technology are good examples of termination aids. Good tools may cost a little more upfront, but they quickly pay for themselves by enabling reliable, headache-free terminations that don’t have to be redone. Inexpensive tools are easy to come by, but they’re often unreliable and don’t have long lifespans – so you’ll end up purchasing them over and over. If you prep to a shorter length, you may not have enough drain wire length for a good bond. For example, when prepping shielded cable, it’s important to strip off approximately four inches of jacket to ensure that there is enough drain wire to wrap and achieve a proper bond. It also creates better cable preparation habits.īelieve it or not, the quality of your cable preparation can dramatically impact the quality of your termination. This saves time because you’re not having to constantly look at the label.
Instead of relying on the termination sticker or printed color code, memorize the T568A and T568B schemes.
