Catalyst Switch Module 3012

10/100/1000 Ethernet Ports

The Catalyst Switch Module 3110G and 3012 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports use standard RJ-45 connectors 
with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet (100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 
1000BASE-T traffic requires Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) 
cable. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 or Category 4 UTP cable.

For information about the 10/100/1000 Ethernet port connections and specifications, see the 

“Connecting Devices to the Ethernet Ports” section on page 2-13

 and 

Appendix B, “Connector and 

Cable Specifications.”
