FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7170 – 13 Product Details
Network Cable
Additional network cable is required if you would like to use
all of the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN network ports.
The FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN network cable is a standard Ether-
net cable. If you need a replacement cable, a longer cable or
an extension, use a standard STP-type (Shielded Twisted
Pair, 1:1) CAT5 Ethernet cable. To extend the cable you will al-
so need a standard CAT5 double coupling link to RJ45. You
can use either straight cable or cross-link cable.
All components are available from specialized vendors.
AVM recommends using a network cable no more than 100
meters long.
13.4 WLAN Switch
The FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7170 is equipped with a WLAN
switch on its rear panel.
The WLAN switch can be used to activate and deactivate
WLAN.
