6. Ethernet Cable Requirements
When installing, each Ethernet cable cannot exceed 100 meters. In order for the PoE
switches to deliver power without problem, it is recommended to use Cat 5 / 5e and Cat 6
cables. The high quality Ethernet cable reduces lost during power transmission. The wiring
cable types are as below.
10BaseT: 2-pair UTP/STP Cat. 3, 4, 5 cable, EIA / TIA-568 100-ohm (Max. 100 m)
100BaseTX: 2-pair UTP/STP Cat. 5 cable, EIA / TIA-568 100-ohm (Max. 100 m)
1000BaseT: 4-pair UTP/STP Cat. 6 cable, EIA / TIA-568 100-ohm (Max. 100 m)
