Cabling and Technology Information
This appendix includes network cable information for cables that should be
used with the Switch E2620, including minimum pin-out information and
specifications for twisted-pair cables.
N o t e
Incorrectly wired cabling is the most common cause of problems for LAN
communications. HP recommends that you work with a qualified LAN cable
installer for assistance with your cabling requirements.
Cabling specifications
Note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements
The Category 5 networking cables that work for 100Base-TX connections
should also work for1000Base-T, as long as all four-pairs are connected. But,
for the most robust connections you should use cabling that complies with
the Category 5e specifications, as described in Addendum 5 to the TIA-568-A
standard (ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-A-5).
