Best Answer

RJ45 do terminate network cables. The process of wiring them requires a crimping tool and a UTP cable stripper. The former for trimming the end of the cable and squeezing the RJ45 after connecting. The latter helps in stripping the jacket of the cable.

Can you convert RJ11 into RJ45 If so What is needed?

No, a conversion can not be made due to the different size of cables that each terminal end uses. An RJ45 uses a Cat , 8 wire cable where as a RJ11 uses a smaller 4 wire cable. The sockets for the RJ45 will be too wide to allow a RJ11 connector to securely connect to it.

Can you use a screwdriver to wire RJ45?

No - RJ45 plugs need to be crimped, RJ45 Sockets need the wires connecting using a punchdown tool which pushes the insulated wires between the contacts and often trims the surplus wire at the same time. A better explanation is here: If you are in an absolute pinch and can't get to the store to buy crimping pliers and you have a lot of cable and cable ends upon which to practice and sufficient patience, you may be lucky enough to produce a usable cable. Don't forget to punch down the plastic strain relief that hinges perpendicular to the plug's axis on the underside.
