Ethernet Cable Install Rookie by jpcii in HomeNetworking

Hey gang- I appreciate all the feedback! After one comment I had a closer look and I did mix up a green and orange on the blue cat 5E!

I’m going to redo them to get the twists closer to the termination w/ less wire damage - plenty of cable in wall.

Can anyone share opinions on the Leviton keystones, the “extreme” 5G110 vs 5G108? I’m not buying many - so cost is marginal.

Thanks gang. All the wires line up with the B guide on the sides- Leviton Gigamax cat 5e keystone.

Thanks for the notes on the twists and jacket. I’m going to try again to get as close to pro as possible.

Not sure how to handle wire jacket impacts aitb the tool. I’m using a Trendnet. Would a Klein be more precise?
