Preparing Your Site for Installation

The Ethernet configuration using unshielded twisted pair (UTP) wire is known as 10BaseT because it uses 10 megabits per second (Mbps) signaling speed, direct current, or baseband, signaling, and twisted pair wire.This configuration includes a central wiring hub with special circuitry to isolate malfunctioning segments of the network. UTP wire uses an RJ-45 connector at each end of the wire. New signaling schemes such as 100BaseT and gigabit Ethernet use the same UTP cabling with upgraded hubs and adapters.

Use a CAT 5 UTP cable at minimum to connect to a 100BaseT network. Use a CAT 3 UTP cable at minimum to connect to a 10BaseT network.

Table 2-1 on page 2-7shows the pinouts for a straight-through 100BaseT cable.
