TP Cable Termination
NOTES:
•
RJ-45 termination with CAT 5, CAT 5e, CAT 6, CAT 6e, and CAT 7 cable must
comply with the TIA/EIA T 568A or TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standard for all
connections.
•
The transmitter and receiver pair work with unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables; but to ensure FCC Class A and CE
compliance, STP cables are required.
•
Terminate both ends of the cable identically, in accordance with either the
TIA/
EIA T 568A or the TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standard.
Figure 9 shows the recommended termination of TP cables with RJ-45 connectors.
NOTE: Terminate both ends of a cable identically, in
accordance with either the TIA/EIA T 568A or the
TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standard.
