STEP 3
Trim all cable shielding (AL foil, metal braid) back to the cable jacket. We recommend
using the Simply45 5” Angled Flush Cutter (
S45-801
). Do not cut off the drain wire.
Fold the drain wire straight back about 1inch (2.5cm) over the cable jacket.
If there is a center spline/pair separator cut it off as close to the jacket as possible
STEP 2
Slide the
S45-1155
metal shell onto the
cable jacket with the front of the shell
facing the termination end. Slide it
back out of the way for the moment.
STEP 1
Using the Simply45 Adjustable LAN Cable Stripper
(
S45-S01BL/YL
) or wire stripper on the Simply45
Heavy Duty RJ45 Crimp Tool (
S45-C100/S45-C101
),
score the cable jacket about 2” (5cm) from the
cable end Be sure not to cut too deep where the
wire conductors could be nicked. Remove the
stripped cable jacket.
