Re: T568A and T568B - WAS KAT5, CAT5 + Clipsal

["Phil Johnson" <whiskybob@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

 

So I've had time to look at the .NET this lunchtime and find that I've been following the T568B pionouts my wiring, I'm thinking that maybe the Clipsal is marked for T568A, therefore it never would have worked.  Well its somewhere to start anyway :-)  Here's a link to the site I used  http://stresscow.org/~jfuller/rj45/rj45.htm

 

You really miss having access to the internet when your connection is down, I'll let you know tomorrow if it worked!

I see, this is great news for me, Darren says he had hassle and Mark says he has no colour coding on his sockets.  I deduce that I'm not mad, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and need to look at this problem in more depth.

 

Thanks all!

My Clipsal sockets don't have ANY colour codes on them?  I had to work it out too.  Numbers/colours at home as well.

Phil,

I wired up my first Clipsal CAT5e connector last week and had the
same problem. Whilst your RJ45 connector is wired correctly the
colour codings on the back of the Clipsal seem to be either wrong or
for a totally different standard. I worked it out eventually and
wrote the right configuration down but I don't have it with me at the
moment. When I get home I'll post what I found unless someone else
here beats me to it.

Regards,
Darren

stem from my inability to wire a Clipsal CAT5e connector, I wired up
a length of CAT5 with an RJ45 connector at one end and the clipsal
jobbie at the other, plugged my KAT 5 units in either end, managed to
get sound, buzz and wobbly "picture".  OK, lets attempt to fix this
step by step I thought...

perfect picture and sound.  So I decided to chop one end of
the "known good" network cable off and wire it to the clipsal, again
I get the same symptons buzz, sound and a wobbly picture.  After some
number of attempts to fix it and lacking a working internet
connection, I gave up.

incorrectly.  The RJ45 connector is wired, from Pin 1:
