Guide to Crimping CAT-5

The NuVo audio systems require CAT-5, four twisted pairs, for communication between the keypads and the main amplifier unit. Each end of the wire is terminated with an RJ45 connector.

The correct wiring scheme for the CAT-5 wire is standard EIA/TIA 568A, which is the industry standard for computer networking. Properly terminating the CAT-5 wire is crucial for the operation of the system. It is very important to use a good quality crimp tool, and testing each termination with a CAT-5 wire tester will insure that your system operates flawlessly.
