Wire Map

A correct wire map
for a straight through
cable.

WIRE MAP: The wire map displays the pairing of the wires in the
cable. The example wire map indicates that the fi rst pair (comprised
of pins 1 and 2) is 203 feet long and terminates in pins 1 and 2 on
the far end of the cable.

specifi cations at a given speed. One percent is barely passing. 100
percent is maximum tolerance.

Tolerance is largely cable length driven. The longer the cable is, the
less the tolerance. However, lower Category cables eat up tolerance
faster than higher Category cables.

If Tolerance is below 15%, you may wish to consider using a
repeater, hub or switch to shorten the cable run. This is especially
true if you are in a "noisy" environment (large electromechanical
machines, etc.).
