Title: Ethernet Color Codes Video. My Review.
Post by: Geek-9pm on July 11, 2016, 02:38:44 PM

Have you ever wondered how the UTP  wires on the standard Ethernet cable are color coded? Have you every tried to replace a broken connector? Even if you have the right tool, you need to know what the colors in the cable mean. Or where each ones goes into the connector before you  squeeze it.
As you have found, you only get one try with the connector. I found a video that makes it clear what you have to do  to get it right.

I recommend  you see it.

Oh, Oh. Pardon my French. Actually, I don't speak French, just mutilate it.
I wanted to say 'Codes' and not 'COPDES' which is French acronym for the  'Comisión Presidencial sobre los Objetivos del Milenio y el Desarrollo Sostenible' and has little to do with the current topic of Ethernet cables.
