RJ45 Wiring guidelines

Use data-quality (not voice-quality) twisted pair cable rated category 5 or 
better   with  standard  RJ45   connectors with  or   without  Neutrik  Ethercon 
connectors. For best performance use shielded cable. Straight through or 
crossover category 5 cable can be used regardless of the type of device 
connected to the GigaSwitch 8. This is because the Gigawitch 8 supports 
auto-mdi/mdix-crossover.   1000Mbps   devices   must   be   connected   to   the 
GigaSwitch using 5e Category cable or higher.
