Acquire cables and connectors:
• Determine the number of
cables needed based on your
planned conguraon.
• Review the maximum distance
allowed for each cable. Choose
the length of the cable based
on the distance between the
hardware components being
connected.
NOTE: The Ethernet cables to
connect to the RJ-45 network
ports on EX4400-24P,
EX4400-24MP, EX4400-48P, and
EX4400-48MP switches provide
90-W power over 4-pair wire. To
ensure that the cables do not
exceed the rated temperature and
ampacity and to ensure proper
operaon, the cables must meet
the following specicaons related
to deployment, temperature rise,
category, IEEE, UL, NEC, and local
electric codes:
• The cables must be rated for
IEEE 802.3 BT, TIA standards,
and UL-LP.
• The cables must follow NEC
725.144 arcle and local
electric code.
• The operang temperature of
the cable must be rated at
15° C more than the ambient
temperature.
