and Default gateway and also the DNS
server addresses then click OK.
If there is no Network Connection,
check the cable between the computer
and router, modem/router or network
switch.
Click the Change Adapter

Check the networking icon.
If you see the little yellow triangle
with black exclamation mark, then you
will need to log in to your router or
modem/router to check its internet
connection settings.

6. COAXIAL
— is consists of a core of copper wire surrounded by
insulation, a braided metal shielding, and an outer
cover.
TV
— is the kind of copper cable used by cable
companies between the community antenna and
user homes and businesses.
7. TWISTED PAIR
Shielded and Unshielded
— STP. Uses a woven copper-braid jacket that is more
protective and of a higher quality than the jacket used by UTP.
It also uses a foil wrap around each of the wire pairs.
— UTP. Most commonly used in
computer networking.
8. FIBER OPTIC
— the medium of choice for any installation that is
sending high volumes of data.
— is a relatively safe way to send data because, unlike
copper-based cables that carry data in the form of
electronic signals, no electrical impulses are carried
over the fiber-optic cable.
15. Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) Cable.Most commonly used type of cable in
local area connection.
Wire Stripper. Used to remove the outer jacket of the wire.
RJ45Connector. An eight wire connector used to connect the computers
to Category 5 (CAT5) UTP cables in a network.
Crimping Tool. Used to conjoin the UTP cable to RJ45 connector to hold
each other.
Cable (LAN) Tester. Used to test if the cable is properly done and can control the
network.

1. Get the
needed length
of the cable
and add a
little extra wire,
just in case.
18. .
Carefully remove theouter
jacket of the cable. Make
sure not to cut the wires
inside. One good way to
do this is to cut
lengthwise with snips or a
knife along the side of the
cable, away from yourself,
about an inch toward the
open end.
19. 3. Check the wires for any
cuts that can expose the
copper wire inside. If it has
any, you will need to cut
the entire wires off and
start over at step one.
Because exposed copper
wire will lead to poor
performance of
connectivity.
20. 4. Untwist the pairs and
lay it flat. The white piece
of thread can be cut off
even with the jacket and
disposed. For easier
handling, cut the wires so
that they are 3/4" (19 mm)
long from the base of the
jacket and even in length.

Make sure that the color

23. 7. Press all the wires flat
and parallel between your
thumb and forefinger. Cut
the top of the wires even
with one another so that
they are 1/2" long from
the base of the jacket
leaving a 1/2" of room for
the individual cables.
Ensure that the cut wires
are even and clean.
24. 8. Keep the wires flat and in
order as you push them
into the RJ-45 plug with the
flat surface of the plug on
top. You can tell if all the
wires made it into the jack if
the wire is located in each
hole. You may have to use a
little effort to push the pairs
firmly into the plug. Verify
that the sequence is still
correct before crimping.
25. 9. Place the wired plug
into the crimping
tool. Give the handle a
firm squeeze. Once you
have completed the crimp,
the handle will reset to the
open position. To ensure
all pins are set, some
prefer to double-crimp by
repeating this step.
27. 11. Test the cable to
ensure that it will
function in the field.
Miswired connection
could lead to physical
damage of computers
or phone system
equipment. A simple
cable tester can quickly
verify that information
for you.
