is this a frikin joke

crimp on rj45 plugs omg

thing ill just buy a patch lead in the future

was tring to make up 50mtr lead to run from dvr to router ???

p,d me off to say the least

why, whats wrong?

You did use a proper crimp tool didnt you lol

never had any bother?

Little tip, strip about 50mm of the sheath, straighten all cores and layout in correct order, cut down to approx 13mm, slide into plug and crimp, easy peasy.

thats fine on a socket - but on a crimp plug i'd just love to see the video

as above, imo after getting the cores in the correct sequence the 'trick' is in getting all the cores exactly the same length then insert into the plug, push real hard and check they are all pushed right in by looking at the nose of the plug before crimping.

but tbh with that length of cable and for what they cost, you could have installed a socket at each end, then used a ready made patch lead to the kit, far easier and quicker imo and definitely more professional result as a bonus.

well i am about to be shot down in flames but here goes

have a LOT of return visits to I.P signalling devices that have lost contact with the network,and it is always that bloody crimp(or the ://.B.W.F.//: l that put it on in the first place...right pain in the //.B.W.F.// at 3 am i can tell you)

when all else fails (as i dont have a crimper let alone some crimps) chop off the crimp and then chop a network lead in half and join in a bit of terminal strip works every time no problem at all

i will now wait for the well you should nt do because brigade to quote me chapter and verse

Platinum tools, EZ-RJ45 tool myself.

Just finished a job at a casino, 5000 cams with racks, headends etc. All done using IP, so I can speak wonders of the tool.
