CYBER.ORG: Networking Fundamentals – 1.3.1 – Copper Cables & 1.3.1 Activity – Ethernet Cat5e Patch Cable Assembly

Objective

  • The student will be able to summarize the types of cables and connectors and explain which is the appropriate type for a solution.

Resources:

  • See PowerPoint presentation: 1.3.1 – Copper Cables.pptx

Links:

Topics Discussed:

  • Networking Basics
  • Networking Fundamentals
  • Ethernet
  • EIA/TIA
  • 568A & 568B Standards
  • Cat5, 5e & 6
  • Local Area Network
  • Cable Management

Assignment:

  1. Begin reading the 1.3.1 – Copper Cables.pptx presentation on the Google Classroom. This lesson will introduce you to different types of copper cables and their standard characteristics.
  2. Next, visit the How to Make a Network Cable: link at https://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Network-Cable for instructions on how to build a Cat5e cable to the EIA/TIA 568A or 568B spec. Read through the instructions completely before proceeding. Pay particular notice to the difference between a “passthrough” cable and a “crossover” cable.
  3. Visit the rolling cart to pick up your tools and materials. You will need a arm’s length of Cat5e cable, two RJ-45 cable ends, and a crimper tool.
  4. Follow the instructions to build your passthrough patch cable.
  5. Once you have your passthrough cable built, test it using the provided cable tester. If your cable test is successful, you may proceed to build a “crossover” cable for extra credit.
  6. Use clear tape and a marker to label your cables with your name and what type of cable it is (passthrough or crossover), and place it in the wire basket on the front table in the room.
  7. Once they are graded, you are free to take your Cat5e cable home for your own use. Cables left behind will be deployed within the department.
