Instructions

1. Remove a few inches of jacket from the cable, to expose the wires.

2. Determine which wiring scheme to use, T568A or T568B. Note the associated color codes and jack pin numbers on the label located on the sides of the jack.

3. Route the wires for termination, according to the chosen color code. Terminate and trim one pair at a time, starting from the rear of the jack, in the order shown. Terminating each pair after placement will prevent crushing the inside pairs with the punchdown tool.

4. Using a 110 style impact tool, seat the wires into the slots of the insulation displacement connectors. Place the cutting side of the tool on the outside, to trim the excess wire flush with the hack body as you punch the wires down.

5. Place the dust caps over the terminated wires to ensure a secure connection and added strain relief.

6. Noting the "UP" orientation of the jack, insert the terminated jack into the manufacturer's housing.

Note: Maintain cable jacket as close to termination as possible.
