Ethernet Port Connector
The Cisco SNS 3515 or Cisco SNS-3595 appliance comes with six integrated dual-port Ethernet controllers.
The controllers provide an interface for connecting to 10-Mb/s, 100-Mb/s, or 1000-Mb/s networks and provide
full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the Ethernet
LAN. Cisco ISE supports multiple NICs.
To access the Ethernet port, connect a Category 3, 4, 5, 5E, or 6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable to the
RJ-45 connector on the back of the appliance.
The following table describes the UTP cable categories.
