RJ45 socket in the wall, what is the order of cables on the other side

Question

Hello, I am looking to slightly expand my home network. The situation is as follows: New house, installation in the walls and standard plugs such as electricity, antenna plug and RJ45 twisted pair plug. This situation occurs in 4 rooms. I have cables in the attic, but unfortunately they are not...

hermes-80 · Answer

Standard B simple.

Mickdundee · Answer

Ok, thank you, and is Switch required in this specific case or can I use something else?

hermes-80 · Answer

Something else, or what?

In walls, lead without crossing. Let`s say that each socket has the T-568b diagram. You connect them all in one place and use a switch there, for example in the attic. You use coss cables to connect devices of the same type, so they won`t be useful here.

przeqpiciel · Answer

There should be the same standard on both sides. A or B, I don`t know why, but I prefer standard B: 1. half-orange 2. orange 3. half-green 4. blue 5. half-blue 6. green 7. semi-brown 8. bronze

Give me a switch - e.g. Netgear GS105G or if there are not enough ports, Netgear GS108G. Do you have any ventilation in this attic? I`m asking because it may be too hot there for electronics in the summer.

Well, I don`t know, I have 230V sockets, an antenna socket and RJ45 sockets in the wall. My friend has plugs in his walls, interesting, interesting... As already written in the thread, you need a simple connection, i.e. without crossover - but whether it is standard A or B depends on what is on the connector. I also suggest that my friend check to what standard the sockets (all of them) were made and whether they are of any standard at all. The LSA tool is used to terminate the twisted pair on the cube. There are usually colored markings on the connector next to the RJ-45 socket, so it will probably be an A or B standard socket.

I have 8p8c sockets and plugs, not RJ-45. Interesting.. interesting.

takijasiu · Answer

A person learns something new all his life. It turns out that the RJ-45 is for the modem and should have a tab so that it cannot be inserted into the 8P8C. Interestingly, a large wholesaler has only one plug from the 8P8C range: And with RJ-45 they have keystone modules, adapters, adapters - a lot of things: Your friend definitely has 8P8C?

Anonymous · Answer

Yes. My friend also has 8p8c. This is a very famous and common mistake. Everyone knows about it, but everyone still uses the name RJ-45. Everyone including me

A minor formal note. Order lived , because the cable is all twisted pair. You might know what this is about, but...

Mickdundee · Answer

A valuable note with this temperature. It`s like a sauna there in the summer. I need 5 port. preferably Netgear 1Gbit Added after 1 [hours] 11 [minutes]: Due to this temperature, I have a slightly stupid question: Will I connect these two cables from the living room downstairs to the room upstairs via a network connector? For example: MDI2LTljZmMtZjAyNTgxMDBjNTE1AA&campaignId=ZmZkMmNhZjQtOTBhYy00MmM2LTk2Y2ItYzMyNjU4MWE3NWY4AA&sig=56605ea29cb3936c5257644a640c0b18&utm_feed=aa34192 d-eee2-4419-9a9a-de66b9dfae24&utm_content= selected&utm_source=google&utm_medium=ads&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIwpus9Jei8QIVWUeRBR04HQNFEAQYBCABEgKJZvD_BwE

jprzedworski · Answer

Netgear usually provides an operating temperature range of 0-40 degrees.

KOCUREK1970 · Answer

Well, I don`t know if a regular fan, even 20cm/12V, will solve the problem - there would have to be a fan, I don`t know, a room fan, which will cool but also dissipate heat, able to work 24/7/30. Just a small note here - one of the ports must be allocated to connect the switch to the router, which means that we have 4 ports left for further use, which means that in the event of a failure of any of the ports, it is impossible to transfer it to another spare port. However, I would buy: There is a reserve of ports, in case of failure of any port, you just connect the cable to a free port and the network continues to work. The difference in price between 5 ports and 8 ports is not that significant.

Anonymous · Answer

What was this fan supposed to do? Stir hot air? There is a need for ventilation, exhaust, etc. as long as what the author describes is temperature and not just a feeling (e.g. stuffiness). Added after 2 [minutes]: Unfortunately, it doesn`t work like that. When a port is damaged in SOHO class switches, the switch is most often replaced because the damage usually affects a common system and several ports fail, or another one fails in a moment anyway.

You can persist, but if it is to be permanent, in my opinion it is better to use an LSA connector of the appropriate category. Unless you have some idea of disconnecting this connection, then it`s a `dice`. like in a sauna is a bit of a relative concept... contrary to appearances, it is a bit difficult to determine the temperature by feel and you can be very wrong. ;) Just connect the switch, hang a thermometer near the equipment and observe what happens. I have installed various home equipment in attics, including uninsulated metal roofing tiles, and they work fine. As a rule, the operating range of all devices is wider than the parameters. However, it can be taken into account that the life of the device may be shortened in such conditions. But it`s worth checking the temperature. It is enough to cause air movement near the housing (underpressure/overpressure) to remove the heated air coming out of the housing. This can improve circulation inside the housing, and therefore the efficiency of heat dissipation inside, and ultimately improve the working conditions of the electronics inside the housing. This is a somewhat distant analogy to a fan built into a housing.

So theoretically and practically, if I leave the living room downstairs using a cable from the main router via one of the LAN ports, I plug into the wall with an RJ45 connector, then in the attic I connect the RJ45 end from the cable coming from the living room to the wall and connect it with an LSA connector to the cable going to the socket in the room where the Access Point is located and connect the RJ45 cable to the WAN port, should it work?

Anonymous · Answer

Honestly? I don`t get anything.

You have twisted pairs with LAN sockets in your rooms - right?

Are the twisted pairs in the attic terminated with nothing or RJ-45 plugs?

And do you need to extend one of the screwdrivers somewhere or something else?

Maybe make a schematic pencil drawing of what is and what is supposed to be, take a scan or a photo and post it.

Mickdundee · Answer

The matter is very simple, namely my intention is to connect the router to the AP through the wall with an RJ45 cable. Unfortunately, I have a cheap TP-link router without WAP and I have to play with cables. For me, theoretically, the LSA connector should solve the problem, but... A small written diagram. Router==>Socket in the wall in the living room==>attic - cable from the living room socket with a plug==>LSA connector/switch==>attic - second cable with connector, this time from the socket in the upstairs room==>socket in the wall in the room upstairs==>twisted-pair cable==>AP WAN socket

Anonymous · Answer

Ah, it`s such a combination. If so, OK.

By the way - I understood that the cables in the attic already have connectors installed. So "quickly" you can use the cube, and after inserting the plugs into it, tightly cover it and the connectors with electrical installation tape. This would improve the long-term stability of such a connection. However, these types of connections most often `fail` in the middle at the contacts, so you can`t expect miracles, but with a bit of luck it can work and work.

But, a well-installed LSA connector has a chance of lifelong operation.

Mickdundee · Answer

It`s 43 degrees there now, but in winter I suspect it will even drop to 5-6 degrees. I`m afraid to install this 1GiB Netgar because it may heat up. That`s why I already bought an LSA connector. The cables in the attic are not yet connected, but I have the appropriate equipment (including a network tester) and terminals to make it quickly. But are you sure the LSA connector will pass the test and establish a connection with the AP through the wall sockets? Isn`t a switch necessary here?

Anonymous · Answer

What will be the total length of these AP cables? What is the speed of the network card in the AP? Are the cables copper or copper-plated?

Mickdundee · Answer

- The total length from the devices to the 2 x 1.5 sockets has those in the walls 3-3.5 m, a total of 6.5 meters. it will be somewhere in the middle
LSA connector.

- Network card in AP 300 mbps

- New cables/new house are probably copper

Anonymous · Answer

It will work without a switch without any problems. It was about the speed of the LAN card, but in the context of the cable length it is irrelevant. I don`t want to worry you, but contractors are cutting costs - so I`m guessing copper-plated ones. However, with such short sections it does not matter much.

Anonymous · Answer

Read the description on the cable and it should be clear. Moisture condensation is much more dangerous for devices than temperature. But, the fact is, better safe than sorry...

Mickdundee · Answer

Okay, thanks everyone for the tips. I`m going to try it and report back if it works

Added after 3 [hours] 47 [minutes]:

Done and everything works as planned. Now TPlink works in AP mode and compared to the Range extender mode it is literally "light years" such a leap. Now you can see that the network is working as it should. The Internet is incomparably faster. Thanks for all the tips. People, don`t install range extenders in your homes because it makes no sense.

tomiok · Answer

This should help. In short, the T568B standard replaced the T568A.

Anonymous · Answer

It may be logical that B (the next letter) is a younger standard than A, but in fact nothing much can be concluded from that discussion, and certainly not that B replaced A. There are no references to any sources in this discussion that would confirm this. [edit] Wikipedia is not a reliable source either, but you can read from it:
