Cabling Requirements
Live-
Fast Ethernet Switch is primarily designed as a central switching device to provide
10/100Mbps bandwidth to your Ethernet/Fast Ethernet LAN.
Cable requirement for 100BASE-TX Port
Those 16 RJ-45 station ports (MDI-X) all require Cat. 5 twisted-pair UTP/STP cable for connection.
When configuring within the 10/100BASE-TX cabling architecture, the cable distance should be
within 100m.
The following table summarizes the cable requirement for 10/100BASE-TX connection:
10BASE-T
100 ohm Category 3, 4, 5 UTP/STP cable
100BASE-TX
100 ohm Category 5 UTP/STP cable
Straight-through cabling
Under most conditions, the 16 station ports on the Switch accept normal, straight-through cables, i.e.,
standard UTP/STP cables, which are the only ones that can be used with a RJ-45 connector
interface.
