In this tutorial, we learn how to crimp your own Ethernet cables. First, grab your cable and take the end of the crimper. Place the cable inside of the crimper, then cut off the first few inches of the cable. Next, unwind the different cables and then use your crimper to straighten on the edges. Cut the wires so they are even, then strip it again if you cut the cable too short. If you have never dealt with crimping cables before, you might want to have someone experienced to help you.
