Cabling Guidelines

 

Category 5 Cable

Category 5 distributed cable that meets ANSI/EIA/TIA-568-A building wiring standards can be a 
maximum of 328 feet (ft.) or 100 meters (m) in length, divided as follows:

20 ft. (6 m) between the hub and the patch panel (if used)

295 ft. (90 m) from the wiring closet to the wall outlet

10 ft. (3 m) from the wall outlet to the desktop device

The patch panel and other connecting hardware must meet the requirements for 100 Mbps 
operation (Category 5). Only 0.5 inch (1.5 cm) of untwist in the wire pair is allowed at any 
termination point.

Category 5 Cable Specifications

Ensure that the fiber cable is crossed over to guarantee link.

Table F-1 lists the electrical requirements of Category 5 UTP cable.
