Advertised cable distances are for guidance only. Many factors can effect transmission
distances including cable construction, quality, install standards, patch panels, faceplates and
external factors such as electromagnetic interference (EMI).
This product is designed to run over unshielded twisted pair Cat5e/6/7 cable. Some
consideration is required when installing shielded (STP) category cable ensuring all drain wires
and shielding are correctly grounded.
All RJ45 terminations should follow EIA/TIA-568-B terminations and not simply wired Pin 1-1,
Pin 2-2.The 568-B standard involves the splitting of the green pair to pins 3 & 6.
Maintain twists within the Cat5e/Cat6/Cat7 cores up to the point of termination.
Maintain gradual bends when installing category cable, ensuring a minimum radius of 25mm
where possible. Avoid sharp bends or twists in the cable avoiding taught or stretched cable at
all times.
When dressing the cable use moderate to low pressure, avoiding pinching of the cable jacket.
Do not splice, join or bridge the cable at anytime, as this will undoubtedly cause transmission
issues.
Use moderate to low pressure when pulling category cable avoiding pressures in excess of
11kgf (of force).
Keep category cable away from sources of EMI (electrical cables, transformers, light fixtures)
ensuring a minimum parallel distance of 300mm, crossing at right angles if absolutely
necessary.
Ensure cable is correctly tested, understanding that a basic continuity check may not be
sufficient to identify issues or to certify cable performance.
Always check local regulations relating to building and fire codes.
