CABLING CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION

1. Plan for network connections-There are certain design
considerations that need to be addressed based on your needs.
a. Which room(s) do I want wired?
b. How many ports do I want in each location?
c. What is a good location for distribution?
d. What path should the cables take?
e. What network speed do I need? This will mainly play a part in
what kind of switch to get.

Step 2: Required Tools and Materials (and Costs)

Your tools and materials (and costs) can vary a lot based on your needs and
what you already have. I borrowed a lot of the following tools, but here's a
very basic, estimated breakdown:

 a) Ethernet crimping tool (only if you're putting plug on the ends). Cost:
$13 on Amazon.
b) Drill (primarily for drilling through wall top plates, but makes
screwing faster too). Cost: varies (I already had one).
c) Square Ruler
d) Pointed hand saw (this makes it easy to cut holes for the
gang boxes/wall plates). Cost: usually around $15.
e) Strong string or a fish tape.
f) Label maker (optional).
g) Pencil.
h) Sharpie-type marker.
i) Ruler.
j) Stud finder.
k) Punch down tool (optional). I used a small screwdriver instead.
l) Laptop or cable tester (to test each drop).

 Step 3: Mount the Wall Plates

Once you've decided where to mount the box, you need to draw the lines on
the wall to fit the new box and cut the hold with the pointed hand saw. The
pointed saw should be able to push through the dry wall pretty easily
without the need to drill starter holes.

Once you have the hole cut in the wall, you can put the single gang box into
the hole and screw the clamps with hold it in place by clamping to the back
of the dry wall. Repeat this for each location that you want to run to.

 At this time you'll also want to cut a hole in the wall in the distribution
room. Here you want to cut a hole that the plastic grommet will fit into.

Step 5: Connect the Wires to the Jacks and Patch Panel

Now we've got the cables run we can punch down the cables to the patch
panel and the to jacks. You can take the raw cable directly out of the wall,
put a RJ-45 plug on it, and plug directly into the switch. But for permanent
installation.

 UTP Installation Do's And Don'ts.
Run all cables in a Star Configuration so that all network links are distributed from, or
Do homerun to, one central hub. Visualize a wagon wheel where all of the spokes start
from on central point, known as the hub of the wheel.
Keep Each cable run must be kept to a maximum of 295 feet (90 meters), so that with
Do patch cords, the entire channel is no more than 328 feet (100 meters). This is a
requirement of the standard.
Do Maintain the twists of the pairs as close as possible to the point of termination, or no
more than 0.5"(one half inch) untwisted.
Do Not Skin off more than 1" of jacket when terminating UTP

Make only gradual bends in the cable where necessary to maintain the minimum bend
Do radius of 4 times the cable diameter or approximately 1" radius (about the roundness of
a half-dollar).
Do Not Allow the cable to be sharply bent, twisted, or kinked at any time. This can cause
permanent damage to the geometry of the cable and cause transmission failures.
Do Dress the cables neatly with Velcro cable ties, using low to moderate pressure.

Do Not Over tighten cable ties or use plastic ties.

Do Cross-connect cables (where necessary), using appropriately rated punch blocks and
components.
Do Not Splice or bridge UTP cable at any point. There should never be multiple appearances of
cable.
Do Use low to moderate force when pulling cable. The standard calls for a maximum of 25
lbf (pounds of force).
Do Not Use excessive force when pulling cable.

Do Use cable pulling lubricant for cable runs that may otherwise require great force to
install. (You will be amazed at what a difference the cable lubricant will make)
Do Not Use oil or any other lubricant not specifically designed for UTP network cable pulling as
they can infiltrate the cable jacket, causing damage to the insulation.
Keep UTP cables as far away from potential sources of EMI (electrical cables,
Do transformers, light fixtures, etc.) as possible. Cables should maintain a 12-inch
separation from power cables.
Do Not Tie cables to electrical conduits, or lay cables on electrical fixtures.

Do Install proper cable supports, spaced no more than 5 feet apart.

Do Not Install cable that is supported by the ceiling tiles. This is unsafe, and is a violation of
the building codes.
Always label every termination point at both ends. Use a unique number for each
Do network link. This will make moves, adds, changes, and troubleshooting as simple as
possible. The TIA-606A administration standard provides guidance for properly labeling
an installation.
Do Always test every installed segment with a cable tester. "Toning" alone is not an
acceptable test.. "Toning" alone, is not an acceptable test.
Do Always install jacks in such a way as to prevent dust and other contaminants from
settling on the contacts. The contacts (pins) of the jack should face up on flush

 mounted plates, or left, right, or down (never up) on surface mount boxes.

Always leave extra slack neatly coiled up in the ceiling or nearest concealed place. It is
Do recommended that you leave at least 5 feet of slack at the work outlet end, and 10 feet
of slack at the patch panel end.
Do Not Never install cables taught. A good installation should have the cables loose, but never
sagging.
Do Always use grommets to protect cable when passing through metal studs or anything
that can possibly cause damage.
Do Choose either 568A or 568B wiring scheme before you begin your project. Wire all jacks
and patch panels for the same wiring scheme (A or B).
Do Not Mix 568A and 568B wiring on the same installation.

Do Not Use staples on UTP cable that crimp the cable tightly. The common T-18 and T-25
cable staples are not recommended for UTP cable. However, the T-59 insulated staple
(1
gun is ideal for fastening both UTP and fiber optic cabling, as it does not put any excess
exception)
pressure on the cable.
Do Always obey all local and national fire and building codes. Be sure to firestop all cables
that penetrate a firewall. Use plenum rated cable where it is mandated.

Once you have all the cables connected, you can mount the patch panel to
the wall and click the jacks into their respective wall plates on the other
ends. You can also screw the wall plates into the gang boxes.

Step 6: Test Your Connections

Before you start connecting most of the network components, you want to
test all of the connections to be sure things are working. This can be done a

 number of ways. If you actually have a network tester, then you probably
know what you're doing.

The next step is to take another patch cable and a laptop and plug it into
each port in each room. Check the switch after each port and verify the
"link" indicator is on. Being able to establish a link tests the physical layer
(i.e. no broken wires, all tight crimps, no crossed wires), as well as the data
link layer (i.e. negotiation between network card and switch port). No IP
addressing or anything needed for testing.

say they do. MB = Master Bedroom, SB = Second Bedroom, etc.

SETUP WIRELESS CONNECTION USING ROUTER, ACCESS

POINT, REPEATER.

1. Setup wireless router

A wireless router broadcasts radio signals containing packets of data to
computers within range. You can plug a wireless router into a broadband
modem to create a wireless network capable of sharing Internet service with
connected devices. While setting up the hardware itself is essentially the
same from router to router, the network settings configuration for a D-Link
is different from that of other brands. After connecting the router and
modem to one another, log in to the D-Link router from a Web browser to set
up the Wi-Fi network.
Hardware Setup

Step 1
Disconnect the modem from its power adapter. Connect an Ethernet cable to
the modem.
Step 2

 Other Functions of Router
1. Port Forwarding - the term port forwarding or port mapping
identifies the combined techniques of:
a. translating the address or port number of a packet to a
new destination possibly accepting such packet(s) in a
packet filter (firewall)
b. forwarding the packet according to the routing table
c. The destination may be a predetermined network port
(assuming protocols like TCP and UDP, though the
process is not limited to these) on a host within a
NAT-masqueraded, typically private network, based on
the port number on which it was received at the
gateway from the originating host.

Types of port forwarding

1. Local port forwarding

2. Remote port forwarding
3. Dynamic port forwarding

SET UP AN AD HOC WIRELESS COMPUTER-TO-COMPUTER NETWORK

NOTE: Before following any of these steps, make sure wireless is turned on,
on the computers between which you are about to create the ad-hoc
network.
Step 1: Creating the Ad Hoc Wireless Network
First, open the Network and Sharing Center. Click on 'Set up a new
connection or network'.

The 'Set Up a Connection or Network' wizard will now start. With it, you can
configure all types of connections, from a normal network to a VPN
connection to your company network or an ad hoc (computer-to-computer)
network. From the list of choices, select 'Set up a wireless ad hoc (computer-
to-computer) network', and click Next.

 You will see a new window which describes the things you can do on a
wireless ad hoc network. Read the contents of the window and click Next.

Now it is time to set up the network. First, type the network name and then
select the security type you want to use. For more security, I recommend
you choose WPA2-Personal. It provides better encryption and it is much
harder to crack than WEP. Then, type the password you want to use and, in
case you want to use this network on other occasions, check the box that
says 'Save this network'. When done, click Next.

The wizard will now create the network. This activity should take no more
than a few seconds.
