Default Cat 5 wiring

Mark:

The first 50 I did took me 15 minutes each and I, probably, had 50% success
rate. Now I do 1 in less than a minute and my success rate is, as far as I
know, 100%.

Get them flat, cut very straight, and don't let go until you slide them in
all the way.

Also, I always wear magnfyinh glasses when doing it.

Good luck.

Greetings Again All,
Am I the only one who has a hard time crimping connectors onto cat 5
cable? I have a cat 5 crimping tool and follow the instructions, but my
success rate is pretty low. Any hints??? Thanks, Mark
