Place wires in connector after stripping outer insulation, place connector in crimping tool and crimp. Cross overs are used to link hubs, routers and bridges to each other through regular ports most devices have a cross over port. Or you can use them to connect two computers without a hub,router or bridge. -----Original Message----- From: Harold Martin [mailto:cocoadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 4:22 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Using RJ45 crimp tool Whew! I think I understand the ordering of the wires now, but I still have two questions: 1. How to actually *use* the tool itself 2. (kinda stupid, I know) what is the diff between crossover and patch cables and when should either be used? I really appreciate all your help.
