Ethernet Port Connector
The CDEs come with an integrated dual-port Ethernet controller. This controller provides an interface
for connecting to 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or 1000-Mbps networks and provides full-duplex (FDX)
capability, which enables simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the Ethernet LAN.
To access the Ethernet port, connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable to the
RJ-45 connector on the back of the device.
Note The 100BASE-TX/1000BASE-TX Ethernet standard requires that the cabling in the network be
Category 5 or higher.
