Using the Computer Network Transmission Media




1. Trial Objectives
1. UTP cable is installed on the network.
2. Understand and comprehend the types of cables.
3. Understand and understand the standards pengkabelan.

2. Basic Theory
Cable is a path to move the information (data) from one device to another device. There are several types of cable used on the local network (LAN). A network can use one type of cable or more than one type of cable. Use of the cable must be tailored to the network topology, protocol, and size.
Unshielded Twisted Pair
Twisted Pair has two types: Shielded and unshielded.
Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable is a common and often used in the local network.

UTP cable consists of 8 wire is marked with 8 different colors, made up to 4 pairs of wire that is wrapped a jacket. Each pair is the cable coil around each other (twisted) between one wire with another wire.
UTP cable is used for Local Area Network is a Category 5 UTP category 5e in particular. To connect one network equipment with other equipment, then the two end of the cable connector is given UTP UTP or better known as the RJ-45. RJ-45 connector has 8 ports with the appropriate amount of wire in the UTP jacket. Eighth wire must be inserted in the port-port RJ-45 and must be locked so that it does not terlepas.Untuk needed tool called Crimping Tool.

EIA / TIA (Electrical Industry Association / Telecomunication Industry Association) has issued a standard order of UTP cable called international standards. There are 2 standard cable order.
1. Color Code T-568A

No. Task Order Color In Transmission
1. Green / White RD + (Receive Data +)
2. Green RD-(Receive Data -)
3. Orange / White TD + (Send + Data)
4. Blue NC (Not Dipakai)
5. Blue / White NC (Not Dipakai)
6. Orange-TD (Data Send -)
7. Brown / White NC (Not Dipakai)
8. Brown NC (Not Dipakai)


2. Color Code T-568B
Code T-568B obtained with the shift cable on order to the order-to-1 with 3 and order to the order of 2-to-6 on the T-568A standards so that better known as the formula 1-3, 2-6. In general, the color code T-568B is most often used by network administrators. The image:

No. Task Order Color In Transmission

2. Orange RD-(Receive Data -)
3. Green / White TD + (Send + Data)
4. Blue NC (Not Dipakai)
5. Blue / White NC (Not Dipakai)
6. Green TD-(Send Data -)
7. Brown / White NC (Not Dipakai)
8. Brown NC (Not Dipakai)

3. Tools and Materials
• RJ-45 connector
• UTP Cable
• scissors / Carter
• Crimping Tool


4. Experiment Results
Once installed on the cable connector in accordance with ISO standards when diTesting error does not occur. By using the Multimeter, setting on the multimeter range ohm meter or multimeter on the buzzer if there are such facilities. Connect the tip of the left side of the pin number 1 with the tip of the right side of the pin number 3 with the mediator in the colokan ohm meter. If related, then the needle on the ohm meter will depart / built after berbunyi.Gambar Results:

5. Analysis and discussion
Attaching RJ-45 connector
Here is how to install the other end of the RJ-45 to the end of the UTP cable:
1. Open the wrapper and drop the cable UTP Crimping tool
2. Sort wire according to international standard T-568B
3. Justify and trim the ends of the wire 8 that has been sorted
4. Insert the wire that has been sorted into the RJ-45 connectors and make sure the order does not change
5. 8 Make sure that the ends of the wire reaches the terdalam from the RJ-45 connectors
6. Lock connectors with RJ-45 Crimping tool
7. Do the same to the other end
8. Check the connection by using the tester.

6. Conclusion
1. UTP cable consists of 8 wire is marked with 8 different colors, made up to 4 pairs of wire that is wrapped a jacket. Each pair is the cable coil around each other (twisted) between one wire with another wire.
2. Straight on the method used to connect the NIC with HUB / Switch. UTP cable is a cable consisting of 4 pairs of colored cable that dipilin according to the spouse. Only be used on the 4 cable only, namely the cable and thread 1 to 2 transmits / tell (white orange, orange) and the sequence 3, and 6 for Receive (green and white, green). Nevertheless, it still took another cable connected to the connector 45 Rj.
3. In the method for cross-over cable on the left position of the cord sequence from left to right; white orange, orange, white green, blue, white blue, green, white chocolate, chocolate. While on the other end of the cable (UTP cable right position), from left to right: bputih green, green, orange and white, blue, white blue, orange, white chocolate, chocolate.
