[good advice]

some more tips:

You need more practice. Strip 1 1/2 to 2" of outer jacket off,
untwist each pair starting with orange, green, blue, brown


You do _not_ wire the plugs simply by colour pairs. It is:

orange/white
orange
green/white
blue
blue/white
green
brown/white
brown

and
flatten/position each wire into the correct order forming a dense,
flat and parallel set of wires fairly close to where they merge from
the jacket.


A thumbnail helps here to keep them in order

Trim straight across just over 1/2" from the jacket
maintaining the formation.


Use a pair of cable cutters. Scissors tend to make a mess of it, you
don't get a clean straight cut

Slip into plug making sure that each wire
slides fully down the right hole, crimp.


If you look at the end of the plug, you'll see where wire(s) have not
been fully pushed home - the cut copper end won't be visible.
