Installation of RJ-45 and Cat 5 JackTools Required: • 110 Punch Down Tool or inexpensive 110 Push Tool (Available from OEM Systems Co.) • Diagonal wire cutters • Wire striper Procedure: ^ • Remove the jack module(s) from the Decoraplate by pushing up on the tab with yourthumb or blunt object. The plastic handle of 110 push tool works well for this. The jackwill pop out the back of the plate.^ (Figure 1) • Remove the two strain relief covers that protect the connecting block.
(Figure 2)
•^ Strip off about 1-1/2 inches of the outer jacket from the wire. •^ The label of the jack has a row of numbers that correspond to the pin numbers. There isalso an upper and lower row of color codes labeled A and B that correspond to theT568A and T568B standards respectively. For USOC connections, use the color codetable to determine the wire color for each pin number.
(Figure 6 and Color Code Table)
•^ Being careful no to completely un-twist the colored pairs, separate the ends of the con-^ ductor pairs so that they can be laid into the appropriate slots of the jack’s connectingblock.^ (Figure 3) •^ On a firm surface, punch the conductors into their slots using a 110 tool.
(Figure 4)
•^ Cut off excess wire. This will not be necessary if you use a 110 punch tool with integralcutting edge. •^ Replace the two protective strain relief covers. •^ Snap the module back into the Decora
^ plate while pushing up on the tab.
