A wire stripper tool designed for UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) and STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cables is handy for professionals and DIY enthusiasts working with networking and telecommunications cables. These cables are commonly used for Ethernet and telephone connections. The wire stripper removes the outer insulation and exposes the twisted pairs or wires for termination.

Here’s how to use a UTP/STP cable stripper for both round and flat cables:

1. Select the right tool: Ensure that you have a wire stripper specifically designed for UTP and STP cables. These strippers typically have multiple cutting notches for different cable sizes.
2. Identify the cable type: Determine whether you are working with a UTP or STP cable. STP cables have a metal shield surrounding the twisted pairs, while UTP cables do not.
3. Prepare the cable: Straighten out the cable and ensure there are no kinks or bends. This makes it easier to strip the cable without damaging the twisted pairs inside.
4. Adjust the stripper: Set the stripper to the appropriate notch or cutting size for your cable. The tool should have multiple notches, each labeled for a specific cable size. Some strippers have notches for both round and flat cables.
5. Strip the cable:
   • For round cables: Place the cable in the notch designed for round cables. Gently close the stripper around the cable, making sure not to squeeze too hard. Rotate the stripper around the cable to cut the outer insulation. Once the insulation is cut, pull it away to expose the twisted pairs.
   • For flat cables: Some UTP/STP cable strippers have a separate notch for flat cables. Insert the flat cable into this notch and apply gentle pressure to cut the insulation. Pull it away to reveal the inner conductors.
6. Inspect the stripped cable: Check to make sure you haven’t nicked or damaged any of the twisted pairs during the stripping process. If you notice any damage, you may need to trim the exposed ends to ensure a clean connection.

Using a UTP/STP cable stripper ensures that you strip the cable’s outer insulation cleanly and efficiently, making it easier to terminate the cables with connectors or terminate blocks for networking and telecommunications purposes. Always exercise caution and precision when working with delicate twisted pairs to maintain the cable’s performance and signal integrity.
