This is the typical procedure to punch the Category 6 network cable on to a Jack. If you are installing an Ethernet network in an office or home, you will need to "terminate" each network wire at the user end with a Category 6 network jack.

Cat6 Wall Jack Installation Steps:
1. Strip back the wire cover with scissors or wire strippers
2. Break-off the portion of the cable jacket to expose wires inside.
3. Check wires to make sure none were cut during the strip
4. Cut off the string
5. Untwist individual wires (sets of colored wires)
6. Push all 8 wires into groove according to the key map
7. Choose either A or B style for wire termination. B is the most common.
8. Use either the plastic insert tool or a Punch-down tool to fully insert the wires into into the Jack.
9. Removes excess wires with scissors
10. Install dust caps on jack ( wire cover )
