Cable Specifications

Copper cable 

10BASE-T UTP Category 3, 4, 5 or higher
100Base-TX UTP Category 5 or higher 
Gauge:

24 to 22AWG

Attenuation:

22.0 dB /100m @ 100 MHz

•  Straight-through MDI twisted-pair cable must be used.
•  Shielded STP or unshielded UTP twisted-pair cable may be used.
•  Pins 1 and 2, 3 and 6 are the two active pairs in an Ethernet network.
•  RJ-45 Pin-out:  Pin 1 = TD+, Pin 2 = TD-, Pin 3 = RD+, Pin 6 = RD-
•  Use only dedicated wire pairs for the active pins:

(e.g., blue/white and white/blue, orange/white and white/orange, etc.)

•  DO NOT use flat or silver satin wire.
