1. INTRODUCTION
This specification covers the requirements for application of Category 6 Modular Plug Connectors. These
requirements are applicable to hand or automatic machine terminating tools. Cables approved for use with
these connectors are round Category 6, twisted-pair cables, shielded or unshielded, with 23-24 AWG solid or
24-26 AWG stranded conductors. The insulated conductor outside diameters must be between 0.80 and
1.00 mm [.031 and .039 in.], and a cable jacket outside diameter between 4.7 and 6.0 mm [.185 and .240 in.].
When corresponding with TE Connectivity Personnel, use the terminology provided in this specification to
facilitate inquiries for information. Basic terms and features of this product are provided in Figure 1.

3.2. Cable
A. Cable Specifications
1. Cable Type: Round jacketed, shielded or unshielded, four twisted pairs
2. Conductor Type:
a. Solid Conductor: 23 - 24 AWG
b. Stranded Conductors: 24 - 26 AWG, 7-strands
3. Conductor Insulation Outside Diameter: 0.80 - 1.00 mm [.031 - .039 in.] for any one conductor. The
sum of diameters for all eight conductors within the cable must not exceed 7.8 mm [.320 in.].
4. Cable Jacket Insulation Diameter: 4.7 - 6.0 mm [.185 - .240 in.].
5. Shield Type: Foil with drain wire or braid.
6. Cable Pair Arrangement: The arrangement of color-coded pairs within the cable jacket applicable to
TIA/EIA T568B wiring and the termination procedures described in this specification is shown in Figure 2.
Cable end A applies to one end of the cable and cable end B to the opposite end. For TIA/EIA T568A
wiring or termination of cables with pair arrangements other than shown in Figure 2, contact the
responsible TE Engineering Department.

B. Cable Preparation
(Figure 3)
1. Slide the boot over the end of the cable before the cable stripping operation.
2. Strip the cable jacket as shown.
CAUTION
Do not nick the insulation of the conductors or the shield of the cable (if present).
3. If the cable is shielded, fold the outside shield and drain wire back over the jacket. Individual pair
shields must be trimmed back to the end of the jacket.
4. If present, cut and remove any cable filler, zipcord, or plastic wrap.
5. Slide the plug shield over the cable jacket and cable shield (if present).

C. Cable Positioning
1. While firmly holding the cable jacket next to the stripped end, position the pairs as shown in Figure 4,
folding the indicated pair back over the jacket.
CAUTION
Minimize the disturbance of the pair arrangement within or exiting the cable jacket.

2. Insert the three side-by-side pairs through the wire holder as shown in Figure 5. Slide the wire holder
back against the end of the cable jacket. The end of the cable jacket should extend into the end of the
wire holder and the folded-back pair should rest in the slot on top of the wire holder.

3. Reposition the folded-back pair over the slot in the top of the wire holder. While holding the wire holder
and cable jacket firmly together, untwist the pair of conductors to the point where they exit the main body
or slot of the wire holder as shown in Figure 6.
4. Straighten and arrange the conductors side-by-side and parallel according to color code as shown in
Figure 6. Note that the G/W-G pair must split to either side of the Bl/W-Bl pair. Press the conductors flat
against the front section of the wire holder.
NOTE
Untwist of conductor pairs may be performed before inserting through the wire holder.
CAUTION
Maintain the last twist (conductor crossing) of each pair as closely as possible to the point indicated. Up to, but not exceeding.
one half untwist may be added to achieve the proper color code arrangement or the split of the G/W-G pair.
Maintain Pair Twists
