Many people assume that learning computer networking is so difficult, but to learn computer networking actually not so diffilcult. We can start to learn computer networking from simple thing first.
Ok, lets begin to learn computer networking. First, we will try to make an UTP cable. An generic UTP cable are cross and straight. For this moment, we will learn cross UTP cable. Because this UTP type can use directly from one computer to other computer without hub or router. To make an UTP cable, we need an "Crimping Tool". Function of crimping tool is to unify the conector and the cable.
The important thing to make an UTP cable is how to combine the right color at ends of cable. These are the color combination of cross UTP cable
| LEFT | RIGHT | ||
| Number | Colour | Number | Colour |
| 1 | Orange and White | 1 | Green and White |
| 2 | Orange | 2 | Green |
| 3 | Green and White | 3 | Orange and White |
| 4 | Blue | 4 | Blue |
| 5 | Blue and White | 5 | Blue and White |
| 6 | Green | 6 | Orange |
| 7 | Brown and White | 7 | Brown and White |
| 8 | Brown | 8 | Brown |
After the color combination was right, connect the cable with conector then lock with crimping tool. And the UTP cable can be used.
