问题

超级用户读者T…想知道如何修复带断裂锁夹的以太网电缆：

I have a 10 meter long Ethernet cable. One plug has the little locking clip missing, just like the part outlined in the red ellipse in the following picture.

How can I fix it? Is this something I should even attempt to fix myself, or is it better to replace the cable?

有没有一个简单的DIY解决方案，T…可以采用，还是应该用一个新的代替电缆？

答案

超级用户贡献者GrossT和user55325为我们提供了答案。首先，格罗斯特：

If you don’t want to replace the cable or install a new jack, you have a few opti***:

1. Glue it into a coupler or a short extension like the ones shown below (with the coupler you will need another short run of cable on the other side):

2. Repair it with a zip tie. Use this guide for instructi***: http://www.instructables.com/id/Repair-a-Broken-Ethernet-Plug/

然后是用户55325的回答：

It’s entirely possible to cut off the plug and install a new one, but you will need a crimping tool. It’s about $15. The thing is, your local store will probably charge you more than $15 for a cable – even if you buy it online, it’ll probably be close to that when you take shipping into account. Therefore, it’s cost-effective in my opinion, even if you only need it occasionally (and those pieces tend to break somewhat frequently, in my experience).

Also, if you ever need to run large amounts of cable, it’s much cheaper to buy it in bulk and cut it yourself.

Don’t forget to match the plug type to the wire type – stranded or solid (in your case, the wire is almost certainly stranded).

正如你所看到的，有不止一种方法来修复电缆，如果你是处理一个快速的DIY工作位。对更多的维修方案感兴趣吗？然后确保通读下面链接的讨论帖子上留下的所有回复！
