I give you a run down on what tools you need, how to strip cable, how to wire the panel, how to punch down the panel.
This same process is used for Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6A cable. Remember to follow your color code. The same goes when your wiring your keystone jack.

Interesting how he is terminating with the cable on the outside of the 110. I have always installed the cable between the termination rows.

I would think it was obvious that he did it to show the process for the viewer. It would be difficult to show the viewer what was shown if he was terminating from the other direction. However, it might have been a good idea to specify that he was doing this for ease of teaching and that the cable was normally placed in the opposite direction.

As long as the cable is supported "zip tied" to the 110, should not matter really if its inside or outside. The point that needs to follow is bicsi standards that is, the twist needs to be less then a half a inch and punched down. 110 need to be redesigned to put the position number on the outside of the termination row. It is kind of hard to read when it is on the inside of the punch down rows.

@@LK-pc4sq its not that hard to tell, with order on inside, being they have it on every section and even if get to last point on panel then just look at the wiring of the rest

Inside is in fact the correct way.
This is the most focus tutorial ive ever seen in patch panel process.
A clear, no BS video. Thanks. Extra thanks for identifying the components you're using, like the type of blade on the punchdown tool.
Learning this from 2024. Thank you man

Wow 11 years old video yet incredibly detailed and clear description.
Nice video. Most manufacturers recommend keeping your punchdown tool set to the LOW setting when punching down patch panels as damage can occur to the patch panel. Often people will set their tool on HIGH thinking it cuts the wire better. LOW works fine. If it doesn't, you probably have a dull blade and you need to change the tip.
Watching this video after 11 years Still I learn Something New
Excellent tutorial here. really liked how you broke down the color coding standards as well as 'landing' the wires properly to minimize signal loss.
Great video. Very clear, easy to see what you are doing and the explanation of each step was completely easy to follow. I appreciate the time you took to make a very useful video.
Nice clear and hassle free, just what the doctor ordered, thank you.
Well paced video with clear videography, really useful - thanks!

I appreciate the use of an Hd camera. it was easy to see the whole time.
Thank you, it's helpful
Thanks for the videos buddy
Very clever and nice tutorial.
very useful THANK YOU!
Excellent video, thank you!!!
Very nice presentation...thanks!
I would not untwist the pairs before punching. Use the raised peak to wedge between each pair to keep the twists in-place up to the block to minimize cross-talk and signal loss -- this is critical for cat6(a) certification -- then untwist the pair on the cut side before punching down for a cleaner cut. Then you'll get a tight connection with minimal signal loss and a lower chance of needing to undo a patch due to a test failure.

Thank you for this video.
I love that this guy's name is Mercy. I need healing.
Very nice video, thank you very much Sir!
good video...doesn't have hands showing and blocking the operation from view...it is the wire and the patch panel...very clear.
Excellent video, thanks.
Thanks, some good tips in here, never occurred to me you can strip the outer coating with the thread. Don't mind the trolls.
Very good explanation thank you
Your video is in very good quality and your explanation is so clear. recommended!
best video on youtube for installing a patch panel. VERY clear instructions, thank you!!
Good intro vid!!!!! :-) Mike in L.A., Calif
Excellent video. Thanks
Great Video! The most detailed and thorough on punching down cables on a panel. You even explained how to properly use the punch tool. This may be the best video about this process on youtube. Thanks Mercy!
Great video, thank you Mercy. (TPB is a great show too :^])
Excellent. Thank you.
Great Video!!! Thanks
Yes. Instruction is very good!
Good production!
Very Helpful Thanks
Awesome video, its very concise, clear, and super easy to understand. That is the exact patch panel that I am looking for. Mercy, do you have the exact SKU number so I can order it online? Thanks!
Thanks You , Thank You THANK YOU!!!
Very very good sir for explaning and thanks
Thanks a lot Mr. Mercy for the nice video, it is possible to use one network cat6 cable for both PC and IP phone? I mean, can I generate a port from an existing port with out using a small switch or other device.
شكرا لك . عمل رائع
Nice brother😊
Hi, For example I have a utp cable with this scenario. I follow the color coding scheme type b on the patch panel on the other end what color coding scheme should I use direct to rj45, no keystone jack. Thank you for the help
Yep, that's it.....great presentation Mercy! Keep up the great work!
Hi from France 😉 thanks for pour help ...i love it 🙏

I have a brand new home with cat5 home run to a punchdown block in a panel in my laundry room. How do I tone out each individual cable? I can't seem to identify specific cables in the block.
Thank yo so much Mercy.Thank you
Well done
Why untwist the pairs more than needed at all? Maintain the color's twist rate (each color has a different number of twists per meter) right up until they enter the punch down slots. The certifier should give you better results that way.

@First Last Usually a Fluke DSX cable analyzer that certifies the cable is terminated correctly and will perform at the given speed. It also measures near end cross talk and far end cross talk which is why untwisting the pairs is a bad idea.
yow sir nice video, can i ask ? patch panel is use for extention? for the wall to connect a lan device?
Thanks bro!!!
Good Work
Good video thanks Sir
Nice job
Nice one
That's Great !
thank you very much
Thank you
it is great, but, why didn't u do the second one?.....does it have to b wired at mirror image color order? or, looking from the center, u have to go in the same color order from left to right? please, include an explanation about it, and, if possible, as well, and clear, as this one, thx in advance....
Good video THANK s
very good teaching on the color codes on 568 B or A easy for dummies to punch down a panel ...just hoped you laid the catv inside block instead you got them from the outside ....anyways cheers bro plus very clear video !

I think he did it that way so viewers could clearly see the colored wires matching the label on the panel.
is it better to place all of them first on the patch panel and then punch them down ?what happens if you punch them as you place them one by one?
Good , thank u I am learn from u
Hi mercy! I must appreciate ...that it was a wonderful presentation...thank you so much :)
Thank you sir
whoever you are , your demo is awesome.

thanks Mercy, can we use the same patch panel and keystone jacks for both Cat 5e and Cat 6 cable ?
@bobbybarnes1652

CAT5e using 24 AWG cable, while CAT6 uses 23 AWG. Just means the CAT5e will be a tiny bit loose in a CAT6 patch pane and vice versa (although it should be OK). While you can get away with it, always use the correct panel & keystone when you can.
Thank you for your idiot-proof video, very helpful since the installer who wired my apartment left one of the in-wall connections unterminated in my patch panel...
excellent!!!
thank you
Thank You
thanks inspiring
I have a cat5e patch panel and I punched down number 1 port to see if I was doing it right before terminating all other 23 patch panel ports. I connect number 1 patch panel port to my Cisco switch and im not getting anything on my device. Do you know what could be the problem ?
Very simple.
Can you remove the cable if you have already punch it down
How to undo when you've made a mistake? Yanking it doesn't work...
Thanks bro
great vid. what's the difference between a and b? thanks
