How To Crimp Repair Lan Ethernet Cable (Cat5e) Split RJ45 Connector Share to Two Laptop System

Step by Step share with you how to crimp one LAN Ethernet cable split to two and sharing with two laptop system.
These only apply to cat5 and cat5e LAN Ethernet network cable only.
Actually cat5 and cat5e network cable just used 4 wires only. (Transmit+, Transmit-, Receive+ and Receive-) just using crimping tools crimp 4 wires only to RJ45 connector.
This Idea is good:-
1. Save Money for wiring many Ethernet cables in the house or office.
2. Use these method to repair your existing broken LAN Cable, rather than re-wire whole cable.
3. Less Wiring environment look more neatly.

2024, and still helpful. the easiest tutorial to follow, thank you! I split my wire to connect to two devices from the switch.

[@AndrewSME]

You're welcome!

Power la daj! Thanks to your video i can do this at my office as one of the LAN sockets went kaput.

Can router and switch be connected through it?

[@AndrewSME]

CAN. it work for 100Mps speed only.

[@Combo_tech]

thnx i will try it at home

[@AndrewSME]

Thanks for Watching ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@darrenalejandro416]

Why will it not work with cat6 cable?

[@AndrewSME]

Because cat6 for 1 GPS speed need 8 wires. unless you just want to run 100mps speed. 4 wires will do.

[@kenrock2]

thanks for posting this video... it really helps alot...

Thinking of doing this for my hikvision Poe camera. There seems to be a problem with the orange pair and I'm wondering if this will work for a 4mp IP camera. What do you think?

[@rmljr52]

Same scheme to make two female wall jacks from one cable? So I don't have to run two cables to connect smart tv and Firestick. When hardwired my transmission speed to my laptop is over 300 mbps. Speed will not be affected?

[@AndrewSME]

It is for cat5e 100mps only

[@KOOLlE]

I understand this video completely, I just can’t imagine a scenario in which you wouldn’t have two cables. Can someone please enlighten me?

[@AndrewSME]

Good Question. The usage mostly for Office use, especially for long distance cable. they can save cost rather than laying two CAT5E cables they just laying one LAN cable for two computers. It is no points for short distance cable. Another usage is that the existing cable found that one or two CAT5E internal wire broken. IT guys can fix it without re-laying the new CAT5E cable. Hope that answer your question.

[@KOOLlE]

Andrew SME it did. Many thanks!

[@AndrewSME]

Thank You for watching and your comments ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@AsiAzzy]

I had the same idea. Had a lan cable insalled long time ago inside the floor travesing a hallway and cemented over and with granite tiles. There are no good wall routings possible as the hallway extends quite far. Now insted of carving walls and ceiling or granite tiles to install a second cable, I've repurposed the old cable packing two connections on the same 8wire cable.

[@ep_dimi]

thank you for the instructions! does this also work for poe??

[@AndrewSME]

No.

[@ep_dimi]

@@AndrewSME thank you for the answer

[@kashafathanif]

if i connect 136 no wire.... Is it working?? Only 3 wire..??

[@chiraggowda8353]

How to make the same for cat6

[@AndrewSME]

Cat6 need use up 8 wires so cannot make it.

[@davidlacziko1516]

I wonder if it works so good, why is this method not used commercially?

[@AndrewSME]

This is work for Cat5e cable only. For Business point of view. Computer shops they prefer laying more cables then can make more money. Thanks for watching. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@THECHEESELORD69]

Also this cuts down on transfer speeds.

[@Lil0Kevin14]

Hello. How is the noise interference using this method on cat5e unshielded cable running a distance of 45 metres. I'm in the same boat, i can't run anymore cat5 cable due to placement issues.

[@AndrewSME]

Since you can't run anymore cat5 cable due to placement issues. no harm to try. unless there is strong noise inference in your environment. otherwise it won't be the issue. Thanks for Watching ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Lil0Kevin14]

@@AndrewSME Andrew. I have seen a rj45 spitter but I'm confused. The spitters don't tell exactly what it's spitting. Some spit the 8 pins into 4 separate pins per port and the other one spits 8 pins into 2 rj45 ports. But thank you will try.

[@mahatmamotivation8845]

@@AndrewSME can we onvert 1 rjh45 internet input from modem to 2 rjh45 output(one for my laptop and other for my pc)? if yes, then how?

[@milichris1393]

I live in the basement, and have run 1 cable from the router upstairs, and it goes to a wallpluck with ethernet output. The wallpluck has to ethernet holes, but only 1 works because the cable goes to that one. With your method, can I split one end into 2, but leave the other end as it is, without splitting up that end?

[@AndrewSME]

You also must split up at the other end. If your basement only got 1 Ethernet hole. and you don't to split, Another alternative is , you can buy another 5 Ports Switch hub for your basement. then you got 4 Ethernet port to use. Thanks for watching. 💗

[@milichris1393]

@@AndrewSME okay Thank you, I do have a switch, but it can only run 100/100 and my internet is 1000/100 So it would have been a cheaper solution for me to just split the cable in two, and the 1 of the cable direkt to my pc so I can download with 1000 mps :D And yea I need to but the tool you have for the ethernet headers :D

[@AndrewSME]

@@milichris1393 WAIT ! Split Ethernet Cable to Two is for Cat5e (10/100) only. Cat5e just needs 4 wires only to running 100 mbps. But Cat6 is 1000 mbps need 8 wires. Once you split it. you are running 100 mbps only. If you want 1000 mbps then you got no choice to buy gigabit switch hub.

[@milichris1393]

@@AndrewSME No cat 6 can run 10 gigabyt, and 5 e can run 1000mps/1 gigabyt So I should be able to split up my 5e, when it is only using 4 out of 8 wires, and still achieve 1000 mps?

[@elyh777]

Why did you do blue, blue-white/ white-brown, brown on the second connection? Would blue-white, blue/ brown-white, brown have the same effect?

[@AndrewSME]

Yes, Both End of the Connector I must follow and match the exact color code on the particular pin. otherwise, it won't be work. Thanks for Watching. 💗

[@wepcorpc-systemsulimitedwe54]

Blue white/blue and white brown/brown is the write pattern to use.

[@vinizan]

Crazy tought but if I have a double conection between 2 100mb/s switches can them make it 200 mb/s?

[@AndrewSME]

🙄Nope. It won't work.

[@Maxim.Zhekov]

Where can I find the protective thing you put on the wires on the final step and how its called? Thank you!

[@AndrewSME]

There are many names to call. some called it "Rubber Boot", Strain Relief Boots", "Boot Cover cap" May be other names some more that I don't know. Thanks For Watching.

is it you means USB 2.0 convert to Ethernet LAN adapter kzbin.info/www/bejne/jV6YmIOefLWKna8

Will not work You will need to convert it from an ethernet port to a usb

[@davidlacziko1516]

Does this work? If so, how?

Sure it can work. but for CAT5E cable only. not for cat6 . Thanks for watching. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

It will work cat 6 too😊

[@THECHEESELORD69]

CAT6 needs 8 wires to run full speed!

[@l.c.ahir.]

Why get 8 wire ...... If use only 4 wire.... Plz give information

[@AndrewSME]

watch 0:38 CAT5E cable diagram. This is for 10/100mbps Cat5e cable , pin 4,5 7 & 8 unused. So, we just used 4 wires only.
