When inserting an RJ-45 connector, be sure the tab on the connector
clicks into position to ensure that it is properly seated.
Caution:
Do not insert a phone jack connector into any RJ-45 port. Use
only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform
with FCC standards.
Notes: 1.
When connecting to a hub or switch that has MDI-X ports,
use crossover cabling. (Refer to “Port and Cable Assignments”
on page 23 for a description of crossover cable.)
2.
Make sure each twisted-pair cable does not exceed 100
meters (328 feet).
