10/100BASE-TX Pin Assignments
Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for
RJ-45 connections: 100-ohm Category 3 or better cable for 10 Mbps
connections, or 100-ohm Category 5 or better cable for 100 Mbps
connections. Also be sure
that the length of any twisted-pair connection
does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
Data and PoE power are delivered on the standard two wire pairs (pins 1,
2, 3, and 6). Since the RJ-45 ports on the switch base unit support
automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for
all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. In
straight-through cable, pins 1, 2, 3, and 6, at one end of the cable, are
connected straight through to pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 at the other end of the
cable. When using any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either
straight-through or crossover cable.
