	Step 1. Carefully strip the jacketing from the cable to expose 1" of the insulated wire conductors. Do not remove any insulation from the conductors.
	Step 2. Untwist the pairs to the jacket. Arrange the wires according to TIA/EIA 568A or 568B standards. Flatten and align the wires. Make one straight cut across all the conductors, removing approximately 3/4".
	Step 3. Insert prepared cable into plug. Be sure to keep the wires in the proper order as you insert them into the holes in the plug. The jacket edge should extend inside the body as shown in the "Before Crimping" illustration.
	Step 4. Insert the plug into a crimp tool. Firmly squeeze the handles to set the contacts and secure the cable.
Step 5.Test the cable using a cable tester to check for shorts, opens or miswires.
