In this video, learn how to install a jack (RJ-11) on a telephone cord! It’s fairly simply, just about anyone can do it!
However, it is recommended to have the proper crimping tool for the job, one does not necessarily need to spend $300US for the tool, you could spend as little as $5US off of eBay (do your search for RJ-11 crimping tool ($5 unknown quality)).

Thanks for this video, so useful. I purchased a cheap plastic crimper with no idea how to use it. I also purchased round phone line, so my task wasn't as easy as your demo (with a nice crimp tool and organized line). Cutting the insulation and laying the wires flat from within the solid round casing was very tricky. My kids have never used our house phone (line was dead long before they were born, yet I kept paying to keep the line/number open). They will be shocked to hear the sound of a real phone ringing. Crazy times.

Thank you for the video. I like that you didn't waste wire & only cut off small amounts. It drives me batty when I see videos where people cut off large chunks without reason.

Same here! Plus my pockets are not that deep! :) ~Jack, VEG

I actually followed along with your video and repaired my phone wire. Nice job. Thanks

Ive been looking for a vid or diagram on how to use a 6 prong plug, with a 4 wire cord for 2 days, when I finally found yours, thank you for the vid.

@huyentrang5724 3 года назад

Thanks VEG! I appreciate for your time with knowledge transferring. It is helpful. I am looking forward the next video. Cheer.

@BoKei Год назад

Thank you so much! 😊 I fixed my first cable because of your guidance! When something bad happens it opens possibilities for growth in knowledge. A few days ago I tripped on the telephone cable and here I am - now I know how to fix it if it happens again!

@BoKei Год назад

Also, when I tested the cable only the 5th was illuminated in green. But the phone works now. Is this okay?

Hi needed help on my cable I have brown green blue and orange which goes where on the rj11 connector

@nataliesharif2167 8 месяцев назад

How do you replace the same thing on the actual phone. The female end to this plug that is on the phone? I have an old touchtone phone and I can see there r 6 holes for wires to come out. The first and last wires r missing. Can I swap this piece with one from another phone?

Impressionante foi o unico canal que eu vi que deu um tutorial correto!! Os canais aqui do Brasil é uma vergonha além de enrolar na explicação, os caras não fazerem um procedimento bem explicado igual ao Vintage.

@matamatosa8898 5 лет назад

how I can. Connect. New rj11 into telephone Copper cable only 2 colors out blue and white ? Without this tool since I dont have it.

@H.T.2forever 4 года назад

Thanks for this. .... Though somewhat confusing is the chart in the video for the Cat X type cabling has pair three (Grn & Wht) reversed from most all other diagrams I see. Where most charts place the Wht/Grn wire on pin 1 and Grn/Wht wire on pin 6 for wiring the full 6P6C telephone connectors such as RJ12s or RJ25s. I'm also told the "P" in the terminology actually stands for "position", not "pin." Minor, but for the sake of accuracy, perhaps worth mentioning I guess. ...

Hi, I just watched your rj11 video…thanks. Do you have any experience with vintage rotary dial phones. I have a vintage 1940’s Automatic Electric desk set that I can’t get to ring having already attached a new wire with an rj11 attached. Anyway any help would be greatly appreciated. Meanwhile, after watching your video I can save a bundle by attaching my own Rj11 connectors to phone wire and not buying one pre-wired. Thanks, Harry

Nice one

@twodeesmusic2023 5 лет назад

thanks

@robandmarywozniak809 2 года назад

Jack, thanks. I would imagine the same applies to RJ-9 connectors for coiled handset cords - where the yellow wire is on the right side with the plastic release tab facing up, as your RJ-11 demo illustrated. True?! ~Rob

@hotajax Год назад

Buddy, how does the OTHER end go? Are both ends exactly the same?

@VintageElectronicsGeek Год назад

Yes, the same. ~Jack, VEG

@SteelRatVT 2 года назад

So, your cable it the same on both ends? In other video, they cable the second end in reverse!

@VintageElectronicsGeek Год назад

Same on both ends. ~Jack, VEG

@suzannebennett8987 6 лет назад

Could you make a video about installing a curly cord jack in the body of a vintage phone? I need to replace a broken jack inside an 80s pushbutton AT&T Princess phone. The existing jack has come loose and is just rattling around inside the phone. Thanks! :)

@VintageElectronicsGeek 5 лет назад

If I had one, I would be more then happy too, however, I do not. It should be very simple, just open the receiver and base up and follow the same pattern as you see, at most it will be 4 wires. ~Jack, VEG

@huttarl 2 года назад

I'm no phone tech expert, but doesn't this video show how to install a *plug*, rather than a *jack*, on a telephone cord? That's what other sources seem to say about the terminology. Maybe this is just colloquial usage?

@VintageElectronicsGeek Год назад

Plug / Jack, used interchangeable....to get anal about it, yes they are different. ~Jack, VEG

@supyrow 6 лет назад

thats how its done!

When making a phone cord, flip the opposite plug over. Q Jaque, What about those 8 wire RJ45 with ROUND JACKet? Itsa bit tricky. good vi I have tangled wires all over the place. don

@VintageElectronicsGeek 8 лет назад

I've not seen round RJ-45's before, only square....I will be rewiring my entire house and network soon, I'll do a video on how to wire a RJ-45, however it's the very same principle as seen here, just more wires! Some cheap Chinese inferior wire can be very hard to work with! Thanks for watching Don! ~VEG, Jack

@umajunkcollector 8 лет назад

yup, I have a spool, the wire is round with four twisted pairs in it.

@VintageElectronicsGeek 8 лет назад

Time to get wired Don! :)

@alive-awake 3 года назад

I have an old 1973 phone that the connector broke. This is beyond something I can do. Who can I call to do it for me. :)

@rockvillemike6062 Год назад

There are no "pins" on a RJ 11 0r RJ 45 connector. The 6P refers to 6 Positions, and 8P refers to 8 Positions. Good informative video! Just sayin' Mike.

@VintageElectronicsGeek Год назад

Mike - I appreciate you trying to educate me and the rest of the fine folks, however you diminish your voice of authority on the matter when you add insult (duh), your comment would have been very positive, powerful and helpful without that word. In the future if you want to be more helpful and a positive role model, try doing it without insult, you may find an improvement not only in those your trying to help but also in yourself as well. Take care my friend and thank you for watching. ~Jack, VEG
