RJ45 pinout and Types of connection

RJ45 pinout and types for Ethernet connections

RJ45 is a connector used for ethernet connection with cat5 or cat6 cables. RJ45 stands for registered jack number 45. It is an eight-pin connecter used to connect unshielded twisted pair communication cables.

It is used to connect PC to PC, PC to Printers, or PC to electronics equipment. It has a vital role in network applications. Cat6 cable used for RJ45 cable connection.

We also know them as UTP cables. It consists of eight-pin connector and eight positions for wiring. The arrangement depends on the type of connections.

Types of cables

We usually classify communications into different types based on wiring standards. Ethernet patch cable consists of fiber optic, coaxial cables, and copper pair of wires.
For the ethernet cable, we often used cat5 and cat6 cables. A twisted pair cable with rj45 connectors.

RJ45 connector wiring

Different standards are used for computer networking. We categorize RJ45 pinout according to different connector wiring. RJ45 wiring is given below.
1- Straight through, including T568a and T568b standard.
2- Crossover cable connection.
3- Rollover.
4- Loopback.

Straight-through:

Straight-through connections are used to connect computer and network switches. There are two standards used for color-coding T568a standard and 568b recognized by ANSI TIA. We use a straight-through connection, in case we connect a computer with the routers, switches, printer, or physical devices.

Crossover cable connection:

we used two computers, which are connected through the ethernet cable. The computers used RX and TX communication at the same ports, that's the reason crossover connection can do communication. If both sides use the same connection RX to RX and TX to TX, communication will not be possible.

Rollover cable connection:

It is for programming, not for data transfer. The color code for the rollover connection is reversed between the two connectors. For example, A connector's 1st wire goes to the 8th terminal of the B connector and the 8th wire will connect at the 1st connector.

RJ45 color code

The color code depends on the connection used rj45 plug. There are two types of standards for the connection used in RJ45 connectors.
1- EIA/TIA 568A
2- EIA/TIA 568B

Arduino sensors and modules list for Projects.

Arduino Sensors for Electronics Projects What is Sensor? A Sensor is a device used as the primary element that measures physical value and converts it into an electrical signal. Also, we can say that the sensor is a transducer. It measures temperature, distance, light, sound, etc. Sensors and actuators are widely used in Arduino projects. These sensors come with a kit or can be purchased separately. Some of them are compatible with Arduino Uno boards and also Raspberry Pi and other electronic modules. There are a lot of types of Arduino sensor kits available in the market. How many types of Arduino Sensors? There are a lot of sensors used in electronics projects , e.g. robotics cars, moving objects, flying drones, IoT(internet of things), sound and light operation, etc. Here is a list of 45 in 1 electronic sensor that comes with an Arduino sensors kit , and the details of their applications.

Led Matrix display interface with Arduino uno

8x8 Led matrix display with Arduino and Pins description There are several types of led matrices available in the market. We can differentiate it as per the size and types of connection, e.g. 5x7, 8x8, common anode, and common cathode type. It comes in different single colors and RGB. But in this article, I will discuss 788bs as a common anode red color 8x8 Led matrix display Module.
