When the network cable is broken, you can take the following methods to connect it:
Winding method
Steps:
Use wire pliers to peel off the outer skin of the wire, exposing 3 to 5 centimeters, and cut off the cross skeleton in the middle.
Wrap the copper wires corresponding to each color together.
Wrap and fix with insulating tape.
Advantages and disadvantages:
Advantages: Simple to operate and easy to implement.
Disadvantages: Signal loss and interference are large, making it suitable for emergency or temporary detection only. It is not suitable for long-term use.
Second, the wiring method
Steps:
Peel off the outer skin of the two short mesh cables, exposing 3 to 5 centimeters, and pay attention to the color difference.
Insert the cores of the same color in the two short network cables into the adapter (wiring) respectively.
Press the top of the adapter with pliers to press tightly, and wrap it with insulating tape to fix it.
Advantages and disadvantages:
Advantages: It is more common in broadband maintenance and is suitable for scenarios where the network cable is bitten or needs to be extended.
Disadvantages: It will have a certain impact on the stability and speed of network signal propagation.
III. Connector method
Steps:
If the network cable is not long enough, make a crystal head at one end.
Insert one end of the finished crystal head into the network cable connector (butt head).
At the other end of the connector, connect another network cable with the crystal head.
Notes:
Make sure that the crystal head is made in accordance with T568B or T568A standards.
Use high-quality network cable connectors and crystal heads to ensure connection stability and signal quality.
Advantages and disadvantages:
Advantages: Simple operation, low cost, and an effective way to solve the problem of insufficient network cable length.
Disadvantages: Additional network cable connectors and crystal heads need to be purchased.
IV. Welding method
Steps:
Peel off the outer skin of the mesh wire to expose the core wire.
Use professional welding tools to weld core wires of the same color together.
Wrap and fix with insulating tape.
Notes:
Welding technology requires high standards and professional welding tools and skills.
During operation, it is necessary to pay attention to safety and avoid burns or electric shock.
Advantages and disadvantages:
Advantages: Stable connection, low signal loss.
Disadvantages: The operation is complex, requires professional tools and skills, and is not suitable for non-professional operation.
Network cable extender or network connection
How to use:
If there is only one short network cable, you can use the network cable extender. The network cable extender comes with a network cable, which is plug and play.
If there are multiple short network cables, you can connect them using a network pair.
Advantages and disadvantages:
Advantages: Easy to use, stable internet speed.
Disadvantages: Requires the purchase of an additional network cable extender or network pair cable.
Precautions
When selecting the method of connecting the network cable, you need to choose according to the actual situation and needs. For example, if you only need to connect the network cable temporarily, you can choose the winding method or the connector method; if you need a long-term stable connection, you can choose the wiring method or the welding method (but the welding method requires professional skills).
When connecting network cables, it is necessary to pay attention to the matching of colors and the correctness of the order. Different colors of core wires have different functions when transferring data. If the connection is wrong, it may cause the network to be unstable or unable to connect.
When using insulating tape for winding and fixing, it is necessary to ensure that the tape tightly wraps the connection to prevent loosening or falling off. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the thickness and material of the tape to avoid excessive interference with signal tranSMission.
In general, there are various ways to connect the network cable, which need to be selected according to the actual situation and needs. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the details and security issues during the operation to ensure the stability of the connection and signal quality.
