nice

Have you fixed it yet? I have the same problem

@@Simontdrhd me too

This technique can be utilized with a boot, instead of running the shrink tubing up and over the connector, use a shorter piece (cut in ½) and only slide it up and against the back of the connector. Then when prepping, slide the appropriately sized snagless boot (8~8.5mm OD for Cat6A shielded) up the cable first before sliding up the shrink tubing. Complete the termination, including the shrink tubing and then slide the boot up and over the connector. This may be a little tight over the shrink tubing OD but that will help hold the boot in place. Also don’t do it when the shrink is still very warm - as it may bunch up like an accordion because it is still flexible. Let it cool a bit before sliding the boot fully up.

Hi there, if you are not a Liberty AV dealer you can try to buy these products through the B&H Photo website or Full Compass.

Saludos Luis, si no es dealer de Liberty AV Solutions, puede buscarlos en el website de B&H Photo o en Full Compass.

Hi Wade! If you do not have an account with Liberty, you can try purchasing the connectors through Full Compass or B&H Photo as we do not sell direct to consumers.

Hi Adrian! Tape is 3M brand 1181 Copper tape. It is designed to support conductivity and the adhesive is conductive. We sell it by the roll under part number 80011181049. If you do not have an account with Liberty AV Solutions, you can try purchasing it via Full Compass or B&H Photo as we do not sell directly to end users.

Hi Helman! If you'd like, please provide us your email address so Ralph Parrett can answer your question via email. You can also contact him directly at rparrett@wescodist.com.

Hey, did you get a answer for your question, that's an interessting point!

@@DippinatorNo, I didn't email. I figured they could answer in the comments where everyone can benefit.

Hi Ty! That is our EHT010 - Category 6A 180 Degree Cut & Crimp Tool for Keystone Compatible Inserts. secure.libertycable.com/product_details.php?pitem=EHT010

So glad we are able to help!!!

That is the dust cap, when the jack is not in use that snaps over the receptacle opening and protects the socket from dirt, debris, or physical damage. Its use is optional but recommended.

EHT010 cut and crimp tool

Hello Jeff, this is our Category 6A 180 Degree Cut & Crimp Tool for Keystone Compatible Inserts (EHT010) secure.libertycable.com/product_details.php?pitem=EHT010. It can be found through websites including one of our distributers, B&H Photo and Video, www.bhphotovideo.com. To purchase, contact the B&H customer service team at 800.606.6969. If you do not find the product online, please contact us at product@libav.com or 800-530-8998.

Yes, in a way. With the higher performing twisted pair cables like Cat7 and Cat8 and even some Cat6A, adding the color stripe on the white conductor has a detrimental effect on the signal performance. The cable won’t certify. So those conductors are not striped. This is why we teach performing the termination in stages, to prevent the opportunity to accidentally cross the wires.

Hello, Tony! Glad you liked this video. Liberty AV does not sell or have that Fusion item so no video is planned at this time. Thank you.

Yes, that is an SF/UTP cable similar to our LLINX-HD cable. If it has a drain wire you can trim off the outer braid and foil and then fold the drain over the jacket and apply the copper tape over the drain wire to complete the shield contact.

@@LibertyAVSolutions Thanks!!!!

That is great! We are happy that Ralph's videos have been so helpfull! ;) Stay tuned for more videos coming soon.

Hello Adrian! That is the braid shield and can be used as the drain wire if one is not present. Just form at least 21 strands into a wire by twisting them together and that will be your effective drain. The remainder can be trimmed off.

Hi Mario, that is our Category 6A 180 Degree Cut & Crimp Tool for Keystone Compatible Inserts - # EHT010. secure.libertycable.com/product_details.php?pitem=EHT010

Hi Jesse ;) we're right with you, Ralph is the man! Here is his answer: The Shrink Tubing is ½” 3:1 shrink ratio. The Crimper part number is 100054LW and it does not have a strain relief crimp option. We do have another tool, (item # 12360C), that crimps the strain relief.

Hello Jordi! Our method shown is a best-practices method, but there are other methods. If you review the instruction sheet, it also shows the wrapping of the drain wire around the jacket. With Cat7, you would use the braid shield instead, form a long enough drain wire out of braid shield strands (at least 20 strands to net the right wire size/copper cross-sectional area) and follow the instruction on the connector sheet at this link: www.occfiber.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Cat6A_Shielded_FTP_Instructions.pdf

Thank you for your comment. While this is a common method and we haven’t experienced this with our terminations, we’re sure our audience would welcome your tips on how to avoid this in terminations. Please feel free to share!

Hi Shawn! The NVR would be the ground reference contact. The RJ45 jack should show a silver “bezel” around the RJ45 jack - that shows the jack is shielded. Simply connecting a shielded cable to that jack would suffice without any other connection needed.

Hello! Thanks for your feedback! You can reach out to our International Sales Teams at internationalsales@libav.com or +1-800-530-8998. You will be directed to the right person who can help you get your hands on our plugs!

Hello Jayson! These tools are currently not being sold on Amazon, but we can notify you once these have been listed on another seller's website. In reference to your next question, it depends on the length of the patch cable. This is not a super flexible cable due to the size of both the cable and connector, so very short patching would be difficult. For 10Gbps networking, a better option might be to use our pre-terminated Cat6a patch cables for short patching seen here: secure.libertycable.com/product-categories/262/Category-LAN-Data+Patch+Cables The majority of the use we see is HDBaseT and USB extension applications. The cable end connectors will connect with and fit in any standard cat5 jack. If you are referring to the keystone jacks, The Liberty Jacks are Keystone style, so they are interchangeable with most products in the market. However, the Cat6A jacks are 1.5X height, so they would not fit vertically in a high-density plate or panel -- side by side, no problem.

Jayson, you can find Liberty AV products on both B7H Photo -> www.bhphotovideo.com/ - or Full Compass -> www.fullcompass.com/ We are pulling together the tooling information and will circle back!

Thank you! We're glad you enjoyed this tutorial! Let us know if you have any questions. ;)

Hi David! Class FA or “Cat7A” has been used for 25G networking. Class F or “Cat7” is a 10G infrastructure cable. It is a non RJ45 network standard. Most of the America’s sell Cat7 more as a premium “Cat6A” cable - using 8P8C RJ45’s for networking and HDBaseT applications. Liberty’s plenum Cat7 is actually a Cat7A rated product.

@@LibertyAVSolutions oh ok! Thank you for the clarification!

@@DavidMunoz-pb9iu Anytime! :)
