PRP Ethernet Connections

Figure 3-11 shows a PRP RJ-45 receptacle and cable connector. The RJ-45 connection does not require an external transceiver. The RJ-45 connection requires Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables, which are not available from Cisco Systems, but are available from commercial cable vendors. Table 3-3 lists the signal-to-pin correspondence for the RJ-45 receptacle.
