Port and Cable Assignments
RJ-45 Port Description
RJ-45 station ports (all port) can be attached to any devices which use a standard
network interface (e.g., a workstation, server, bridge or router). RJ-45 daisy-chain
ports (all port) can be cascaded to a station port on similar networking devices (e.g.,
another switch or hub). Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair
(STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100-ohm Category 3, 4 or 5 cable for 10 Mbps
connections or 100-ohm Category 5 cable for 100 Mbps connections. Also be sure
that the length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
Schematics for both straight and crossover twisted-pair cable are shown below
