Using a Punchdown Tool (110) to install a Leviton Gigamax Network Jack

This post outlines how to use a Punchdown Tool (110) to install a Leviton Cat 5e Network Jack and the decommission of the associated box that you could put it in.

Prerequisites:
- Punchdown Tool (110)
- Leviton Cat5e Gigamax Network Jack
- Cat5e+ Network Cable

Removing the Jack from the Box:
1. Apply some pressure removing the back piece from the front overlay on the box.

2. This will reveal the inside of the Box, flip it over so you can get access to the back tab and apply pressure to release the Jack from the box.

Adding/Removing Cable from the Jack:
1. Take off the top cover from the Jack

2. This will reveal the pin-outs, using a 110 Tool you can push your new cable in, or simply remove the old cabling that has been installed.

3. The color coding is marked along the bottom of the Jack depending if you are T568A or T568B. Typically I use T568A being in North America.
