The RJ45 cable is a standard cable which has four twisted pairs of colors. It is easy to crimp a RJ45 cable

and make it into a straight cable or cross the cable as required. To make a straight cable, the ends must be

crimped in the same way at each end. When making a crossover cable, some wires of certain colors have to

 be reversed. Learning how to crimp a RJ45 cable and making straight and cross cables prove to be useful as

different types of wires of varied lengths are required to build a network.
