Ethernet cables and termination

10BASE-T (Twisted Pair)

Do not use Òsilver satinÓ telephone extension cables for 10BASE-T networks, either as drop cords or as patch cables in the wiring closet. (Silver satin cables are ßat, usually silver or gray, with 28-gauge stranded or tinsel conductors.) Do not use shielded twisted pair cable intended for IBM token ring networks or voice-grade (level 1 or 2) unshielded twisted pair cable for wiring runs. These cables do not meet the requirements for 10BASE-T and will lead to unreliable operation.

10BASE2 (Thin Ethernet)

Depending on the type of Ethernet cables you use and your network conÞguration, you may need to use terminators at certain points in the installation. Refer to the documentation for your Ethernet adapters and cables for details.

Tektronix and Apple 10BASE2 Ethernet adapters have built-in terminators and do not require additional terminators. Adapters from other manufacturers may not have built-in terminators and may require terminators and connectors such as those listed in the following table.
