How should I wire my ethernet sockets?

(1/3) > >>

ArnauVF4:
I bought two sockets, for connecting one end to a cable and then router, and then the other  one to a cable and a computer.The sockets and cable are cat 6.

(The two sockets need to be connected to each other using a cat6 cable)
 
Thanks

Here is the result of a 10 second google.

It's important to know that the wiring is in twisted pairs.   It will not work if you do not observe this pairing.

perieanuo:
Just respect pin to pin.every modern nic knows switching pairs if needed.

Gigabit ethernet is significantly more picky about signal integrity issues like maintaining the twisted pair right up to the plug. Basically its RF - each pair is a differential transmission line. It's really pretty much a marvel of engineering that it 'just works' - and so well now.

A long time ago one often needed to use a crossover Ethernet cable in some patching situations but now most switches (all 1000-BaseT "gigabit" Ethernet switches do) automatically select - so a special crossover cable isn't necessary except sometimes on old slow non-gigabit HW that doesnt have a specially marked crossover jack. (Typically this is done for the 'uplink' port on a lower speed switch/router so users don't need a special cable)

Use hardware thats designed for Cat 6 and if you're making your own cables, invest a few bucks in a cable tester device..

I can't even understand the question. I can't parse the OP. I am not sure what the question is.

To me "socket" implies female. It sounds like he may be trying to build an ethernet cable with female RJ45 at the ends.

At any rate, to the question "How should I wire my ethernet sockets?" I would answer "you should wire them correctly".
