1.5.1 110 Punch-Down Block
This section shows you how to use a punch-down tool to seat an 8-wire Ethernet cable to the 110 punch-
down block. You can connect a PoE switch to the 110 punch-down block to provide power and
Internet access to the NWA through this connection. An 8-pin Ethernet cable has four pairs of color
coded wires.
1 Cut out one and a half inches of the jacket from the Ethernet cable to expose the wires.
2 Untwist the wire pairs no more than one inch.
3 Match each wire to the correct slot according to the color codes for wiring shown below.
4 Use a punch-down tool to seat the wires down properly into the slot.
