ask the students.
Class, what can you say about the video clip It is all about how the computer networks

Yes, it’s all about computer networks, how

computers connect and work. How do
computers connect physically? We will find
out them in today’s lesson.
C. Lesson Proper (Using slideshow

presentation)
Alright, before we proceed to our main topic,

let us define some terms as we will encounter
them throughout the discussion.
Ethernet cable – a network cable used to Students will read the definition

PCs, routers, and switches.

Today, we will be discussing about

LAN/Ethernet cabling. Particularly, the
straight-through cabling. We will also be
discussing when to use and how to create a
straight-through cable.

creating cable used to create a network that
interconnects computers and other network
devices.
Alright, Ethernet/LAN cabling is the process of

creating cables used to connect a network.
Now, there are two types of Ethernet/LAN
cables, and what are these?
Types of Ethernet/LAN Cables
1. Straight-through Cable
2. Crossover Cable
Now, there are two types of Ethernet/LAN

cables. The first one is straight-through cable
and the other is the crossover cable. But for this
session, we will be focusing on the straight-
through cable.
So, what is a straight-through cable?
Straight-through cable - a type of twisted pair Students will read the definition.
cable that is used in local area networks to
connect a computer to a network hub such as a
router.
It is said that the straight-through cable is used

to connect a computer to a network hub such as
a router. Therefore, when do we use straight-
through cable?
The teacher will give examples of the instances

that a straight-through cable will be used.
Class, these are the connections that use

Now, class from these examples, what have you
observed? Straight-through cables are used to
connect different devices.
Very good.
Rule of Thumb:
We use straight-through cable when connecting

two different devices.
Alright, you know when to use straight-through

cable. The next thing is, how do you create a
straight-through cable?
Now, when terminating or splicing a straight-

through cable we have to follow industry
standards. There are two color combination
standards used in creating a straight-through
cable. The first is the T568A and the other one
is the T568B color combination. So, for
instance, if we use T568A on one side of the
cable we also use the same code on the other
side. Did you get it? Yes sir
Color Codes for Terminating a Straight-
through Cable
1. T568A
2. T568B
T568A
T568B
However, it is a common practice in the

industry that the T568B color code is used for
straight-through cables. Which means, we will
be using the T568B in creating our straight-
through cable, although, T568A can also be
used in creating a straight-through cable.
Do you understand class? Yes sir.
Alright, we already identified what color code

will be used for our straight-through cable.
Now, I will demonstrate to you how to make a
straight through cable. But before making the
straight-through cable, let me remind you of the
safety precautions.
Safety Precautions:
 Avoid horse playing
 Use the proper tool
 Always be on task
 Be vigilant
Am I clear? Yes sir.
Now, here are the steps in creating a straight

through cable. You should carefully observe as
I demonstrate because after this, you will be
making your own straight-through cable.
Am I understood? Yes sir.
The teacher will demonstrate to the class how

to create a straight-through cable.
Steps in Creating a Straight-through Cable
1. Prepare all materials needed.
2. Remove the outer jacket/insulation of
the cable to about one inch.
3. Untwist the cable pairs, spread the
wires, and arrange them based on
T568B color code.
4. Straighten and flatten the wires
between your thumb and forefinger.
5. Trim the untwisted wires to about ½ to
¾ of an inch.
6. The exposed copper pins on the RJ-45
connector must be facing towards you.
Ensure that the wires are in order from
left to right starting from pin 1.
7. Insert the wire firmly into the RJ-45
connector until all wires are pushed as
far as possible into the connector.
8. Visually inspect the cable and ensure
the right wire codes match the pin
numbers and the eight wires should be
pressed firmly against the end of the
RJ-45 connector.
9. Place the RJ-45 connector and cable
into the crimping tool and crimp the
RJ-45 connector until you hear a click
from it.
10. Repeat all the previous steps with the
other end of the cable.
11. Test the cable using the network cable
tester.
There you have it. Those are the steps. I have

just created a straight-through cable.
Were you able to follow the procedure class? Yes sir.

Do you have questions or clarifications? No sir.
D. Application
So, it’s now your turn to make your straight-

through cable. You already have your
groupings. You also have the tools and
materials with you. If you have any questions
during the activity, you should raise your hand
for you to be recognized. Also, minimize your
voice and avoid unnecessary noise while
performing the activity.
Am I clear? Yes sir
The teacher is facilitating the activity. The students are doing the activity.
After the activity.
Did you enjoy our activity? Yes sir.

Did you learn from our topic today? Yes sir.
Do you have any questions or clarifications
about our topic today? No sir.
E. Generalization
We use straight-through cable when
When do we use a straight-through cable? connecting two different devices.
Give an example of a connection that uses Connecting a computer and a router.
What are the 2 color standards used in The color standards used are the T568A
straight-through cabling? and T568B.
What color standard is commonly used in T568B is the color standard used in a
industry in creating a straight-through cable? straight-through cable.
What is the color combination of the T568B The color combination is white-orange,
color standard starting from pin 1 up to pin 8? orange, white-green, blue, white-blue,
green, white-brown, brown.
