GIGANET CATEGORY 6 UTP CABLING SYSTEM PART 1 CONNECTOR TERMINATION El connector 0:14 Giganet category 6 UTP connector provides a familiar RJ45 interface for both voice and data applications. 0:22 Cable conductors are terminated on industry standard wiring blocks of the rear. 0:27 Color-coded labels show the correct conductor positions for both the T568A and the T568B wiring schemes. 0:36 Because of its keystone design the connector simply clips into the back of the Giganet faceplate. 0:42 Removing the connector from the faceplate is just as easy. THE CABLE 0:47 Giganet category 6 UTP data cable is fully standards-compliant and contains a traditional plastic pair separator for consistent crosstalk performance. THE TOOLS 0:58 The recommended giganet tools for cable terminationn are the GN-561010 cable stripper the GN-561002 insertion tool and the GN-561071 cutting tool. 1:14 The head of the insertion tool combines a wire insertor with scissor-action cutting blades. 1:21 The handle contains a conductor hook and insertion blade for use during maintenance and fold finding operations. 1:28 The stripping tool can be used on a variety of cable types but for removing the jacket of giganet CAT6 UTP cable only the front blade is needed. 1:38 Use a small cross edge screwdriver to adjust the cutting depth of the blade so that it scrawls the jacket of a piece of scrap cable without cutting through to the conductors underneath. THE TERMINATION PROCESS 2:14 To prepare the cable for termination use the length of the connector as a guide and scrawl and remove a short section of the cable jacket. 2:42 cut away the nylon cord and open up the core of the cable to expose the plastic separator. 3:08 Trim away the separator close to the cable jacket making surenot to damage any of the conductors in the process. 3:25

Position the connected with the rear of the wiring block as close as possible to the cable jacket 3:33 Then separate each pair in turn just enough to be able to fit each conductor into its appropriate wiring guide according to the chosen wiring scheme. 4:02 Once all the wires are in position pull them horizontally to allow the blades of the termination tool to cut them cleanly. Use the termination tool to insert and cut each conductor in turn. 4:30 but inspect the connector to make sure that each conductor is fully seated and trimmed 4:36 finally reverse the connector so that it fits correctly into the rear of the faceplate. PART 2 PATCH PANNEL TERMINATION 4:56 The giganet category 6 UTP 24 and 48 way patch pannels exceed category six component specifications and support Lincoln channel performance in excess of 2.50 megaHertzs 5:09 The pannels fit industry standard 19 inches racks and cabinet and are very simple to install. 5:15 All RJ45 ports have A numerical identification as well as labeling fields with a writtable surface. 5:23 The ports are configured in blocks of six to make cable management easy and feature industry standard terminal blocks at the rear for cable termination. 5:31 Color-coded labels show the correct pair positions for both the T568A and the T568B wiring schemes. 5:41 Each pannel is supplied with a rear cable manager for optional use when mounting the cables. 5:49 To terminate the cable on the pannel first remove approximately thirty millimeters of the jacket and prepare the core in the same way as when terminating the UTP jack. 6:15 Position the cable and sort the pairs into their correct positions for the chosen wiring scheme, in this case the T568B scheme has been chosen. 6:24 Separate the conductors of each pair just enough to be able to insert them into the appropriate wiring slots. 6:52 Use a GN-561002 tool to insert And trim each conductor. 7:08 Repeat the process for all the other cables on the pannel. 7:26 Tie each bundle of six cables to its appropriate anchoring point using the supplied cable ties... and strap the bundles together for a tidy appearance. 7:56

As an alternative to dressing all the cables from one end of the panel, the cable bundles can be divided in two and brought to the back of the panel from both ends as shown here. 8:07 Another option is to attach the rear cable manager and use it to dress the cables directly from behind the pannel. 8:16 Giganet CAP 6 UTP cabling system is eligible for the Giganet 25 years system warranty. 8:22 For more details of this and the full Giganet products set visit giga-net.co.uk (is hyphen and . is dot)
