RJ-45 Connectors - Patch Cables for Category 5 Wire

REMEMBE R To hold the RJ45 connector with the 'clip' on the bottom. To have to the 'opening' (where you insert the cable) facing you. CAT5 Standard Patch Cord CAT5 Cross-over Cable

REMEMBE R For a crossover cable make one end like the Standard Patch Cord, and one end like the Cross-over Cable.

Straight-Through vs. Cross-Over In general, the patch cords that you use with your Ethernet connections are "straightthrough", which means that pin 1 of the plug on one end is connected to pin 1 of the plug on the other end. In this particular case it is not then important to wire them as above. Pin 1 is Pin 1 etc etc. However for the sake of uniformity it may be best to wire

your cables with the same colour sequence. Cross-Over cables are "crossed" end to end data cables aren't. If you have a network hub that has an uplink port on it then you do not need to make (or purchase a cross-over cable). Just switch the port on the hub to the 'uplink' mode. If your hub does not have an 'uplink' port on it then the only way to cascade another hub or attach a cable modem is to use a cross-over cable. It helps for future reference to mark or attach a tag to the cross-over cable so that you do not attempt to use it as a 'normal' patch lead at some time in the future. The only time you cross connections in 10/100BaseT is when you connect two Ethernet devices directly together without a hub. This can be two computers connected without a hub, or two hubs via standard Ethernet ports in the hubs. Then you need a "cross-over" patch cable, which crosses the transmit and receive pairs, the orange and green pairs in normal wiring. In a cross-over cable, one end is normal, and the other end has the cross-over configuration. Remember you can only network two computers together with Cat5 cable. To add extra PC's to your network you will require a hub.

When working with 10Base-T wiring, concentrators, and adapters from different vendors, it is possible to connect everything and get no communication between file servers and workstations. When there are several unknown variables, it is difficult to determine which component is broken. Troubleshooting Techniques The following article describes troubleshooting techniques that can be applied to 10Base-T twisted-pair networks. First, know whether your equipment is compliant with the 10Base-T standard, or if it was manufactured before the standard was set ("pre-10Base-T"). This is particularly important for concentrators (hubs or repeaters). Although the two specifications may appear similar, small differences can cause a network to not function properly. Following are the most common problems encountered when working with pre-10BaseT and 10Base-T equipment. Common Problems with Differing Standards: By definition, 10Base-T requires that twisted-pair wiring has an impedance of 100 ohms. Pre-10Base-T hubs and adapters may be configurable within an impedance range of anywhere between 75 and 150 ohms. When attempting to connect a 10Base-T adapter to a pre-10Base-T hub, there can be an obvious impedance mismatch, which causes the adapter to malfunction. Make sure that both the hub and adapter are configured to the same impedance setting. Note: Most 10Base-T adapters are designed so that they are compatible with both pre10Base-T and 10Base-T hubs. The impedance range is jumper selectable on the

adapter. Network specialists also have many problems making 10Base-T compliant cables. To connect a file server or netstation to a hub, the correct 10Base-T cable must be used. An RJ-45 connector is used at both ends of the twisted-pair cable, which consists of four wires (two pairs). Following are the pin-outs for the cable: +----------------+ +----------------+ | Pin 1 TD+ |-------------------| TD+ Pin 1 ---| | Pin 2 TD- |-------------------| TD- Pin 2 ---| | Pin 3 RD+ |-------------------| RD+ Pin 3 ---| | Pin 4 | | Pin 4 ---| | Pin 5 | | Pin 5 ---| | Pin 6 RD- |-------------------| RD- Pin 6 ---| | Pin 7 | | Pin 7 ---| | Pin 8 | | Pin 8 ---| +----------------+ +----------------+ RJ-45 RJ-45

A straight through cable is used to go from the adapter to the hub. The hub performs an internal crossover so that the signal can go from TD+ to RD+ and TD- to RD-. When looking at an RJ-45 connector from the front (that is, the opposite side from where the wires enter the connector), pin 1 is identified on the right hand side when the metal contacts are facing up. Make sure that the TD+ and TD- wires are twisted together, and that the RD+ and RDwires are twisted together. Using wires from opposing pairs can cause signals to be lost in the imbalance thus created. Troubleshooting Hubs: When there is doubt whether a hub is performing correctly or if the impedance settings are in question, a crossover cable can help the specialist isolate the troublesome component. If a file server and a net-station can be connected back to back, the specialist can at least know that the adapters and network operating system are properly configured. To make a crossover cable, simply connect TD+ to RD+ and TD- to RD-. The cable performs the crossover which is usually performed by the hub. Following are the pin-outs for the crossover cable: TD+ Pin 1 -------------------- Pin 3 RD+ TD- Pin 2 -------------------- Pin 6 RDRD+ Pin 3 -------------------- Pin 1 TD+ RD- Pin 6 -------------------- Pin 2 TD-

If the file server and net-station function together as a small network, then either the existing cabling or the hub is the culprit. Note: There should only be one crossover, and it should be performed by the hub. If a section of installed cable is configured as a crossover cable, it cancels the hub's crossover and creates a straight through connection. Many adapter manufacturers (including 3Com) design an LED into the adapter which tells the network specialist whether or not the cabling has been wired properly. If there is a proper crossover, then the LED lights up. If there is a straight through connection, the LED is dark. A blinking LED indicates that there is a polarity mismatch (that is, TD+ to RD- instead of TD+ to RD+). The wiring is close and the adapter may or may not function; if it functions at all, it will function poorly.

Konfigurasi RJ 45
Langsung aja dah.. 1. Kabel Data (bahasa IT-nya sih Kabel UTP), kalo yang biasa dipake di perkantoran sih yang Cat 5E- 100Mbps

2. Konektor RJ45 (biasanya dijual kardusan)

3. Tang Crimping (Nyari-nya di toko elektronik, saya pernah nyoba beli di apotik nggak ada) :ngakaks

4. Lan Tester (ini alat harganya lumayan, jadi kalo gak punya LAN Tester, PD aja dengan hasil Konfigurasi ente langsung colokin aja di PC trus langsung coba)

Kalo Semua alat dan bahan sudah lengkap, mari kita simak dulu susunan kabel ke konektor Rj 45-nya: Untuk yang Straight (Menghubungkan PC dengan HUB/Switch):

Untuk tipe straight ini konfigurasi di kedua ujung kabel sama; 1. Putih Orange 2. Orange 3. Putih Hijau 4. Biru 5. Putih Biru 6. Hijau 7. Putih Coklat 8. Coklat Untuk Type Cross 1. Menghubungkan PC ke PC langsung tanpa HUB/Switch. 2. Menghubungkan HUB/Swicth dengan HUB/Switch

Untuk tipe Cross konfigurasi di tiap Ujung kabel beda ; Ujung A: 1. Putih Orange 2. Orange 3. Putih Hijau 4. Biru 5. Putih Biru 6. Hijau 7. Putih Coklat 8. Coklat Ujung B : 1. Putih Hijau 2. Hijau 3. Putih Orange 4. Putih Coklat 5. Coklat 6. Orange 7. Biru 8. Putih Biru Langkah Langkah Kita akan coba bikin kabel straight, pertama kupas-lah pelindung luar kabel UTP lalu atur agar lurus kabel-kabel didalamnya.(ati ati gan pas ngupasnya, kabel yang di dalemnya rentan putus) Urutkan posisinya berdasarkan gambar diatas. Potong ujung kabel dengan gunting agar rata. Masukkan kedalam konektor RJ-45 lalu di crimping dengan tang crimping. Ikuti caranya untuk ujung kedua sama dengan langkah pertama. Masukkan ujung kedua kabel kedalam LAN-tester lalu periksa, jika semua lampu 1-8 terhubung maka kabel ini sudah siap kita pakai. Untuk kabel cross juga sama seperti langkah diatas, bedanya harap perhatikan salah satu ujung yang berbeda. Adapun standard pemakaian kabel ini adalah kurang lebh 100 meter,
