Wiring Guidelines
For 100BaseTX (Fast Ethernet) and 10BaseT (Ethernet)
•
All cables must be Category 5 (or better).
•
Maximum distance is 100 meters.
•
Only 1, 2, 3 and 6 are used.
•
Pins 1 - 2 should use the same twisted pair; 3 - 6 should
use the same twisted pair.
Network connections may be made at any time during installation or system operation. If re-
cabling the network becomes necessary, during system operation, care should be taken not
to interrupt any current network sessions that may be active.
The selection of the media speed and duplex mode is made either automatically by the auto-
negotiation protocol or manually through management interface. In most cases, it is best to
let the auto-negotiation protocol supported by the adapter to select the media speed and
type. It will attempt to make connections in the following order.
1. 100 Mbps, Full Duplex
2. 100 Mbps, Half Duplex
3. 10 Mbps, Full Duplex
4. 10 Mbps, Half Duplex
If none of the above works, no link will be established.
