Dear frank,

Your question sounds like you are either taking a course in computers or cabling. We have a policy of not doing homework for students but will point you in the right direction to help you.

First, for 8 pin modular jacks (an RJ-45 even though commonly used is an incorrect specification) can be found right here on this site:

For categories of cable and their usage, see this url:

Good luck with your studies
Sincerely,
Joseph Golan, RCDD
