  • Excellent tutorial

  • @rayshell013 Thanks!

  • THGANKS, IT HELPEDA LOT!

  • @GEMCITYX Thanks for watching!

  • For anyone that's going to be making a lot of these, you'll want to get a stripper and crimper specifically designed for RJ6. I used to work for a major cable TV provider and we made like 20 - 30 of these things each day before going out. With the right tools, you can bust out 20 - 30 in just a few minutes.

  • @fubecafy Correct, actually compression fitting is the way to go. I have a video of that as well.

  • @mightydesign Sounds like the stranded wire is hitting the inner cable somewhere in the crimp. In my experience that is the number one cause. The crimping style in this video is the worst connection to use really. The best is compression really. I have 2 other coax related videos for better connectors.

  • My house was prewired with coax cable when it was built in 2002. The first owner stripped some of the connectors when they moved out, I tried to add connectors but I get static. I have not done any crimping because I want to make sure it wont have static. What could be the cause? All the lines that were not stripped work perfect with no static. House has about 9 lines prewired thru out the house.

  • @dccollectoraz Glad I could help!

  • Awesome, thanks.... I was cutting everything but the copper inner cable, and getting no signal.... I was beginning to think it was my tv...
