How-to make your own Ethernet "splitter"

Step 6: Plug the other splitter to the patch panel

...and plug two patch cords from the splitter to two free ethernet jacks from the switch. If your splitter connections are right the two leds "LINK" from the switch on which the patch cord are connected should turn on.

I did all the steps but i cant seem to get it right. after i completed the splitter if i connect only one jack it doesn work but when i enter 2 jack only one works. i tried with the combination of colours you gave and the combination of the rjs i found on the existing set up

it can be confusing to the unknown here but the green cable is plugged into a "punchdown" not a switch. He has it wired correctly.
