Twisted-Pair Cable and Pin Assignments
CAUTION: DO NOT plug a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. Use only twisted-pair cables
with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.
For 100BASE-TX/10BASE-T connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. Each
wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one wire might be green and the other,
green with white stripes. Also, an RJ-45 connector must be attached to both ends of the cable.
CAUTION: Each wire pair must be attached to the RJ-45 connectors in a specific orientation.
Figure B-1 illustrates how the pins on the RJ-45 connector are numbered. Be sure to hold the
connectors in the same orientation when attaching the wires to the pins.
