I show how I terminate Ethernet cables and discuss the tools I use. I also go over the types of terminations (568-A and 568-B) and how to make a crossover cable.

I have 9 conductor stranded shielded 24AWG wire. (going to use it to run to my encoders). I want to terminate them with the RJ45 jacks.

It says 24AWG 9C+1. I'm assuming the +1 is a shield ground.. anyways what correct RJ45 ends do i need? It looks just like "cat5" but i bought a 100' in bulk because the price was so good and it is pretty flexible stuff.

@diyengineer Hey. You just need shielded RJ45 connectors, then you can connect (or solder) the drain wire to the shield on the jack. I'll PM you a link
