How to connect an internet outlet

And the last one is the Internet, which is very much in demand nowadays. I already wrote about the first two, just follow the links, but about the last one, “sharpened” for computers, I somehow delayed everything. Today I want to correct this injustice and lay out complete instructions for connecting. I have a LEZARD outlet, but it will be useful for everyone to look, because the principle is the same for everyone. As usual there will be photo and video instructions. So bookmark...


First, let's look at the Internet outlet itself. This is a plastic type that is inserted into, but connected to an internet cable, that is, there are no electrical wires.

Outside, this outlet has a connector for the RJ45 connector, it is into it that we further insert the wire from the network card of a computer, laptop or TV (). Hung on the wall to hide the wires (which are embedded in the wall) and make it look more aesthetic. Everything is hidden, everything is beautiful - this is the main purpose. I think now it becomes clear why it is needed!

We disassemble the Internet outletLEZARD

Before we mount it, we need to disassemble it. This is done in order to connect it to the Internet cable, and then attach it to the wall. Here we go:

  • Unroll the body. We unscrew the central “bolt” and all the plastic decorative protection will come off. We don't need her yet.

  • After that, we need to remove the central part with the main contacts. She sits on the latches, just press on top and everything will be removed.

  • We have the central part in our hands, it is we who will connect it to the Internet cable. To do this, we need to remove the top "small" cover.

  • We need to “put” an already stripped cable into these contacts. However, another question arises - how to plant it? Where should any colors be? See the diagram below.

Wiring diagram

As you can see, different colors are applied on the “sides” of the socket, it is from them that you can determine how to make the connection correctly. However, there are two rows of colors: - row "A" and row "B", which one should be connected?

  • Everything is just guys, the first row "A" is, so to speak, for self-connection, here the colors do not go in the generally accepted configuration, as if for their own needs. It’s worth connecting like this if you did the wiring yourself. Scientifically, this configuration is called - T568A, I do not advise you to use it, because now in Russia they use a slightly different configuration.
  • T568B, " option B”- this is a generally accepted configuration, if installers pulled the wire into your apartment, then they will “squeeze” it that way! I myself, as an experienced IT specialist, use only this method so that everything is in order in my head. So, everything is simple - we combine the wires, according to the colors.

That is, it is applied on the case, “white-orange”, we insert the “white-orange” wire into it, if it is blue, we insert blue, and so on. I don't think it's worth explaining here. Watch the video version below for more details.

I would also like to note that you need to connect all 8 wires! Of course there is an option with "four", but it works at speeds up to 100Mb / s. But all "eight" can withstand up to 1Gb / s, and this is serious!

How to start a wire

Many people ask the question - how to get a cable into an Internet outlet? Does it need to be cleaned, etc.?

You don't need to clean up anything! We just take a segment of the required length and force it inside, the socket has “cutters” on the sides, they are made like “teeth” with a sharpening down. They cut through the cable sheath to the metal, and do not allow it to come out back.

Thus, the connections are very strong, there is also an additional cover on top that will not allow the wires to “come out”.

Final connection

Well, we completely figured out, the most important thing is with the wiring. Now for the final connection. We cut the cable (of the required length, I advise you to leave 10 - 15 cm) - we clean it and insert it into our connectors and close the plastic "small" cover.

Then the resulting "block" is inserted into the window of the metal frame.

Now we mount the socket to the socket. Both side locking bolts and standard ones from the socket may be needed. This is what it looks like without the decorative "stub".

Now we take and put on the “plug”, fasten it to the “bolt”. This is the final stage, in fact, you can already use the Internet.

Now we are watching the video version of the article, in which I tried to tell in more detail.

Here is such an instruction, use the guys. I myself have already connected several outlets in this way, including behind the TV, it has been working for several years now!
