Network Cable Requirements

The network adapters support a UTP Ethernet cable equipped with a standard RJ-45-compatible plug. Observe the following cabling restrictions.

NOTICE: To avoid line interference, voice and data lines must be in separate sheaths.

•Use Category 5 or greater wiring and connectors.

•Do not exceed a cable run length (from a workstation to a hub) of 100 m (328 ft).

For detailed guidelines about the operation of a network, see "Systems Considerations of Multi- Segment Networks" in the IEEE 802.3 standard.
