FAQs

What is the difference between RJ10 and RJ45?

RJ10 (4P4C) is used for telephone handset cables. RJ45 is used for network (Ethernet) cables.

Can I use these plugs for a network cable?

No, these RJ10 plugs are only for telephone handset cables. Use RJ45 connectors for network cables.

What tools do I need to use these plugs?

You will need a crimping tool designed for RJ10 connectors, a wire stripper, and possibly a small screwdriver.

How do I know the correct wire order?

The wire order typically follows a standard, but it is best to refer to the documentation of your specific telephone device or existing cable.

What does 4P4C mean?

4P4C stands for 4 Position 4 Contact. This means the connector has 4 positions and 4 contacts for the wires.

Are these plugs reusable?

No, these are designed to be crimped once. If you need to remove and reattach, you'll need a new plug.

What if the wires are too short?

If the wires are too short after stripping, you'll need to cut off the end and strip the cable again. Ensure there's enough wire to properly seat in the plug.

Troubleshooting

Handset not working

Check the connection at both ends of the cable. Ensure the wires are in the correct order inside the RJ10 plug. Recrimp if necessary.

Poor audio quality

Inspect the RJ10 plug connections for any loose wires or damage. Ensure the crimp is secure. Replace the plug if damaged.
