Terminators Terminators are required at both ends of the network to ensure the
communication signal quality on the network. The terminators are female
and male. See Figure 5.
The terminator requirements are different for each layout. See Figure 8
and Figure 9.
Cabling Requirements
Cabling The network uses Category 5 (CAT 5) cable, a standard cable available
from Xantrex or any computer supply store. The cable consists of eight
conductors in four twisted pairs with an RJ45 modular connector wired to
the T568A standard. Table 3 contains the arrangements of wire colors to
pin numbers for the T568A standard.
