Figure 3. Shielded CAT5/6 connector
Use only professional-quality, outdoor-rated, RF-shielded cables in
conjunction with Fluidmesh radio transceivers.
Assemble all shielded CAT5/6 connectors to the following standards:
• Only use shielded RJ45 Ethernet connectors.
• When inserting each connector into a shielded Ethernet port, the
connector's inner jacket must form a positive contact with the
Ethernet port.
• When each RJ45 connector is plugged into the correct Ethernet
port of the Cisco FM Ponte kit, lock the bottom of the RJ45
connector using the side retaining screws.
• When all RJ45 connectors are connected to the unit, make sure
that the bottom cover of the unit is correctly secured to the unit
enclosure.
