Had the materials and the tools for almost a year and decided today was the day to work on the new install out in my party barn. Watched the video this morning and used the straightforward and well-presented info to complete several cables to connect my TV and SONOS sound bar to the internet. I have 8 more cables that I need to do out there to finish hooking up all the systems. Thanks for the great video.

@TheNetGuy 7 месяцев назад

Far out! Glad it helped you and that your project was a success. Wired is the way to go for long distances or backhauls.

@steinbierz 7 месяцев назад

@@TheNetGuy I fully agree with your wired comment...I use it everywhere it is practical.

@TheNetGuy 7 месяцев назад

Exactly. Though I have to admit I have a 1/4 mile wireless link between buildings only because Ethernet wasn’t practical and fiber too expensive 😜

@GmackZilla 6 месяцев назад

Thank you! I've been trying to create my own Cat6 with this same tools, watching other videos on YT and you broke it down perfectly. I created my first one while watching this video and pausing when I needed to. Used my tester and it passed! Great work!

Bought the wire and tools a few months ago to wire my whole house up, but haven’t had time. Being iced in gave me that time and went as smooth as can be. Thanks for the help!

@geofreypejsa54 Год назад

Thanks for the video; while I know you made this months ago, i just used it today and your demo worked like magic. I wouldn't mind knowing a bit more how to 'relax' the cables as easily as you made it sound. probably just need to practice more!

@bukIau 5 месяцев назад

2:50 I’ve had this for about 6-8 months and I always wanted to lock it in place to store it properly in my bag and thanks to your video I didn’t know that if I crimp it slowly it locks in place…finally!

Thank you so much.

@ghomerhust Год назад

man i love that passthrough plug. all i have are the non pass styles, and yeah it's really tough to get solid sheath crimps when you are first starting out and figuring out the lengths and whatnot. this is SO much better

@michaelpoczynek 7 месяцев назад

Cool tool! Wish I had one 40 years ago. Thanks for making this video.

@wallcouldtalk 9 месяцев назад

I am not in this industry, so I've never needed to make these. Until today! And your video was hugely useful. Was gifted this tool for Christmas last year and they DO work great.

@TheNetGuy 8 месяцев назад

@@TheNetGuy Hello, can you just use an old school (cat 5 era) crimper with these pass-through mod heads and then just neatly snip off the excess wires coming past the crimp / terminals ..? ...or will the cut off end be sloppy and interfere with a good plug in connection ..?

@TheNetGuy 7 месяцев назад

@barrya.6212 you can, with a very sharp pair of scissors, cut off the excess after it is through and pull it back just a little into the crimper, so it doesn’t stick out. The biggest problem is if you don’t cut it flush, it could push the connector out of the housing.

@steveng5503 Год назад

The “string” inside the cable is actually for “ripping” the sheath open along its length to prepare the cable pairs for “making off”. ✌🏻👍🏻🇬🇧

@nicktheneko 8 месяцев назад

you should do a good comparison between the cheap Chinese clones of the RJ45 Klein tool and other alternatives

@TheNetGuy 8 месяцев назад

Good call!

@PaulLadendorf 14 дней назад

@ 4:58 "like this" is that clip side up?

@TheNetGuy 14 дней назад

Always clip facing away from you. Easier to see the colors too 👍

@243WW Год назад

My pass throughs don't cut the end ones, orange/white and brown, the cutting blade is too short. Annoying for the price.

@Mrperson0 Год назад

Are you using the Klein Tools crimper that he shown in the video? If so, one thing I learned yesterday is if you bought the Cable Matters cat6 passthrough connectors, they work terribly with these crimpers. The moment I tried out a Klein Tools cat6 passthrough connector, I no longer had any issue with it making clean cuts.

@243WW Год назад

@@Mrperson0 Mate great bit of info. I'll get some.!!!👍

@raiderwolf2066 Год назад

Pass throughs are easier to work with, but more prone to failure. Ask any *seasoned* professional.

@stix87 2 месяца назад

Does it even matter the colour code? I mean....as long as both ends are the same??

@TheNetGuy 2 месяца назад

Yes and no. The pins can be of any color but the pairs matter for shielding. Since you may not be able to see both ends in a large building or long run install it’s recommended to follow the pattern. Additionally wall keystone blocks follow a standard which makes it easier to punch down vs random wires. 👍

@stix87 2 месяца назад

Thank you. In the B standard. It appears that the green pairs are separated. Im sure there's a reason. Can you elaborate on that?

@TheNetGuy 2 месяца назад

@@stix87yes, the transmit and receive wires actually flip ends when the cable is inserted, so send/receive pairs unit on each side. This is also how POE and auto negotiation work. So you can use any colors, just the pin outs need to be the same.

@velocityacoustics 8 месяцев назад

Please do not use the crimper to remove the jacket. You can nick the conducters. Buy a separate tool that slightly scores the jacket. I can see from the video the crimper completely penetrates the jacket. The "string" is technically called a RIP CORD. Also pass throughs while convenient, are really the worst type of RJ-45s. Having exposed copper on the end of the plug all in a row like that is terrible for NEXT. And the termination was far from perfect, there should be no more than a 1/2 inch of untwist. You could have organized the wires better, and massaged them further into the plug.

@TheNetGuy 8 месяцев назад

Tell us how you really feel 😜. Good points for pro crimps.
