What should be noticed is that always leave about 2.5 inches (6 cm) at the end of the cable. Insert the cable into the cable stripping tool or modular crimping tool, and spin it around a few times. Then remove the jacket. Stripping back the cable will help you remove the jacket to expose enough of the cable, so you can separate it. After removing the cable jacket, you will have a few inches of exposed cable. Try to straighten the ends as much as you can, and this can make them easier to terminate.
Take the protective cover off the top of the jack and set the cable into the block of the jack. Insert each wire into its own separate slot, making sure that the wire matches the A or B configuration. The conductor wires should be extending out of the jack.
Note: Consider to choose between T568A or T568B wiring scheme. The T568B is becoming more popular since it can be used with older color codes as well as newer codes.
Take your punch down tool and press it down on the conductor wires to cut them. The angled (cut) part of the blade should contact with the long sturdy side of the jack. This will also make sure the wires that are cut are flush with the jack.
Note: Be sure to punch straight down and not at an angle. This will prevent the jack from bending. A loud click along with the punch down action means that you ve terminated the wire correctly.
Look at each wire to make sure there is no overhang out the side of the jack. You should also make sure that the edge of the cable jacket is near the base of the jack and the wires you just terminated. The wires should be securely in place. If you notice wires sticking out the side, take a wire cutter and carefully trim the wire so that its flush with the jack. The snap the dust caps in place to protect the wires. This will keep the connection secure and can prevent strain on the wires.
