Hello! I am trying to replace a wall plate having a small phone plug with an rj45. First time doing this.

The cable itself is a cat5e. On the other end near my switch, there is an rj45 already wired in, so I wanted to check it to know if it's wired A or B, to replicate on the wall plate. But I have this in the photo... 1-2 is blue ?

How should I wire my rj45 keystone for the wall plate ? T568A or B ? Or following the current colors/numbers ?

This a 2016 construction, in Quebec, Canada.

Thanks a lot!

I would cut off the goofy stuff and install new T568B at both ends.

I know it doesn't really matter, but to keep in standard with Canada we use T568A
