Abstract
A method for determining the position of the cores of a twisted-pair cable is intended to allow twisted-pair cables to be connected using the piercing technique. For this purpose, at a plurality of points in a scanning region which is axially and/or azimuthally extended with respect to an axis of the twisted-pair cable, an inductive coupling between a first circuit arranged at each respective point and the twisted-pair cable as a second circuit is determined, and a position of the cores of the twisted-pair cable is determined on the basis of the values determined for the inductive coupling at the points.
