WIRING AND DISPLAY EXAMPLES

PROPERLY WIRED T568A UTP:

CableMaster200
T568B is electrically identical to T568A, but swaps the green and orange pairs. Either
standard will work as long as the same standard is used at both ends of a run or patch
cable. Mixing "A" and "B" creates a cross-over cable.

T568A CABLE WITH SPLIT PAIRS:

CableMaster200
A common error in building a cable is to put all the pairs in pin sequence 1-2, 3-4, 5-6
and 7-8. This will produce the correct continuity, but the pairs are designated to be on
pins 3-6 and 4-5 in the middle of the connector for compatibility with phone wiring.
This wiring error is only detected by the split pair test since the designated pairs are
not twisted together.
