10/100BASE-TX Pin Assignments

Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100-ohm Category 3 or better cable for 10 Mbps connections, or 100-ohm Category 5 or better cable for 100 Mbps connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

The RJ-45 port on the access point is wired with MDI pinouts. This means that you must use crossover cables for connections to PCs or servers, and straight-through cable for connections to switches or hubs. However, when connecting to devices that support automatic MDI/MDI-X pinout configuration, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable.
