standard distances as per mentioned on 5.2.8. and the LEDs also acts similarly as mentioned above.

5.2.9 6KP8-RJ45 (Twisted Pair), 10/100Mb 8-Port

The 6KP8-RJ45 module supports Ethernet twisted pair segments of any standard length. It is equipped with an eight-port RJ-45 connector, and offers 10/100 full / half-duplex auto- negotiating capability on each port. The RJ-45 connector is shielded to minimize emissions

and will allow both unshielded twisted pair (UTP) and shielded twisted pair (STP) cable connections. The 6KP8-RJ45 module is equipped with a Media Dependent Auto- Crossover (MDI-X) switch, which controls all ports for cascaded connection. This feature eliminates the need for a special twisted pair crossover cable when connecting to a hub or another switch.

Each port has an Activity (ACT) LED indicating packets being received, a Link (LK) LED that indicates proper connectivity with the remote device when lit, a FDX/HDX LED to indicate full-duplex mode when lit (or half-duplex when off), and a “10/100” LED indicating 100Mb when lit (or 10 Mbps when off).

Important Note: The 10/100 RJ-45 ports are supported with Auto-negotiation and Auto-crossover (MDIX), which allow the RJ-45 ports to automatically Link with any RJ- 45 device and eliminate the use of cross-over cable.

NOTE: for Power Substations: In support of the IEEE 1613 Class 2 standard, GCI advises that, for substation applications, the RJ-45 ports are intended for connectivity to other communication equipment such as routers or telecommunication multiplexers installed in close proximity (i.e., less than 2 meters or 6.5ft) to the 6K25. It is not recommended to use these ports in substation applications to interface to field devices across distances which could produce kigh (greater than 2500V ) levels of ground potential rise (GPR) during line-to-ground fault conditions. The 6K25 passes the 1613specifications for zero packet loss with fiber ports & with RJ45 ports used as indicated here.
