9H423-26 Cabling Requirements
100BASE-FX
On the fiber end, Clause 26 of the IEEE 802.3 defines 1300 nm operation over two
strands of 62.5/125
µ
m graded index multimode fiber. FX also permits three types
of fiber optic connectors: ST, FDDI MIC, and SC. The duplex SC connector
(Figure A-5) houses a transmit and receive fiber in a shared plastic housing. It is
important that the transmit (TX) and receive (RX) fibers are clearly labeled.

Why is CAT 5 Cable Necessary for 100BASE-TX?
Since the 9H423-26’s 100BASE-TX RJ21s will mainly be used in ‘Horizontal’-type
cabling, the remainder of this appendix will discuss this cabling application.
The colors in bold designate the primary color of the wire. For example, pin 26 connects to a
wire that is primarily white with blue stripes and pin 1’s wire is underlying blue with
white stripes. However, because Category 5 has more “twists” than Category 3, vendors
might manufacture the twisted pairs with the primary colors only. Therefore pair one will
have one white wire, pin 26, twisted with one blue wire, pin 1.
NOTE
Horizontal Cabling refers to the segment of cabling that extends from the work area
telecommunications outlet/connector to the horizontal cross-connect in the
telecommunications closet. Horizontal Cabling includes the horizontal cabling,
telecommunications outlet, cable terminations and cross-connections. See TIA/EIA 568A,
Commercial Building Telecommunications Cabling Standard for further information.
