Required equipment
You will need the following equipment to install the room
station:
• EZ RJ45 ratchet-style crimper
• Phillips screwdriver
Cable preparation
To add an RJ45 connector to the cable, do the following:
1. Use a CAT5e stripper to score the outer jacket about 2 in.
(51 mm) from the end of the cable.
Installation
Note:
Do not cut the cable with the stripper.
2. Use your fingers to bend the outer jacket back and forth
until the jacket breaks off.
3. Cut the spline so that it does not protrude from the outer
jacket. Be careful not to nick the wires.
Terminate the CAT5 cables used to connect the room station with
an RJ45 plug using the TIA 568A residential standard configura-
tion. Proper installation of the CAT5e plug is critical to maintain
4. Untwist the wires and flatten them until all kinks are
removed.
5. Slide 0.25 in. (6 mm) of the outer jacket over the spline.
6. Trim the wires to 1.5 in. (38 mm) from the outer jacket.
7. Arrange the wires in the correct color code sequence
according to the T568A pin out configuration.
8. Slide the wires into the RJ45 plug, keeping them in the
correct color sequence. The tips of the wires will protrude
from the end of the connector.
Mounting the room station
To mount the room station, do the following:
1. Press the tab on the bottom of the base and lift the face plate
off the base.
2. Mount the back plate to a double-gang, low-energy box
using the mounting screws provided. Do not overtighten the
screws.
CAUTION:
You must use the flathead screws
provided or damage to the room station
will occur.
9. Continue sliding the wires all the way into the plug until
about 0.25 in. (6 mm) of the outer jacket is inside the plug.
The cable should stop sliding in when the spline touches the
connector.
10. Crimp the connector using the EZ RJ45 ratchet-style
crimper. The crimper will crimp then cut the wires. Use
your fingers to finish breaking off the wires.
