Installing RJ-45

Network practical

I connected a small scale network together and tested to see if all the small wires had been connected to correctly. Firstly I ensured that the cables I used where of the right length and where properly trimmed so that they could be connected effectively to both the network interface and the output rj-45 socket. Has I connected to smaller wires into the interface, I had to ensure that I kept the wires as coiled as possible so that interference was kept to a minimum. Lame connections can result in loss of connectivity to the network, so it is very important that this procedure was carried out with care. After this I then had to connect the cable into the rj-45 output, following the same procedure as before and ensuring that the wires were kept as coiled as possible. The next step was to test what I had connected, I did this by using a special device and selecting the wire test, to make sure all of the wires were connected and ready for use.
